[Bug c/24728] New: Constant array index past end does not generate compile-time error

["Larry dot Finger at lwfinger dot net" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

A constant reference to an array element past the end of the array does not
generate an error. Included are the output from gcc -v and a test program that
mimics the real-world case where the coding error corrupted the stack: 

Using built-in specs.

Test Program:
=============
int sub1(int);
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
        int i,j = 0;
        i = sub1(j);
        return i;
}
int sub1(int j ) {
        int b[13];
        b[13] = j;
        return 0;
}
