[Bug c/40136] New: Initializing a union whose first member is an anonymous struct

["markleone at gmail dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Not sure if this is a bug or a standards interpretation issue.  Consider the
following union, whose first member is an anonymous struct:

union Foo {
    struct { float a,b,c; };
    const char* x;
};

icc (10.1) permits initialization of the first member of the union:

Foo foo = { .0f, .0f, .0f };

gcc (4.0.1) doesn't permit that, but does permit the following, which I believe
should not be accepted:

Foo foo = { "foo" };
