BTW, the synopsis in 8081 is quite unspecific (so it's hard to find
that report when looking for it). Can it be changed?

The variable sized return type seems to be the crucial thing; nested
functions are not directly related (just necessary to evoke the
problem because GCC won't allow variable sized types outside of
functions).
