[Bug c/19435] spurious warnings with nested array constructors

I have very similar situation but with even worse results:

struct foo {
  int i;
  char* s[];
} arr[] = {
  {
    1, { "first", "second" }
  },
  {
    2, { "third", "fourth" }
  }
};

gcc (GCC) 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-6) and gcc-3.4 (GCC) 3.4.4 20041218 (prerelease)
(Debian 3.4.3-7) say the following:
$ gcc-3.3 struct.cc
struct.cc:11: internal compiler error: in tree_low_cst, at tree.c:3255
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <URL:http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html> for instructions.
For Debian GNU/Linux specific bug reporting instructions, see
<URL:file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-3.3/README.Bugs>.

gcc 2.95.4 says the following:
$ gcc-2.95 struct.cc
struct.cc:11: excess elements in aggregate initializer
struct.cc:11: excess elements in aggregate initializer

I am not sure whether the code is correct according to standards, 
but gcc should not break there :-/
