We should at least avoid introducing a third variant of how we lay out these
nasty zero-sized friends.  People actually use them.  For example Wine uses
them to enforce compatible alignment and data layout with MS Windows
datastructure.  Wine has a bunch of #ifdefs spread around in its sources to
make it work with the pre- and post-GCC 3.4 layout.  Adding a third would drive
those poor people nuts.
