[Bug target/26427] [4.2 Regression] with -fsection-anchors with zero sized structs

[geoffk at gcc dot gnu dot org]

The issue here is that Darwin does not support zero-sized objects in the
linker.  It just won't work.

So, you need to make sure that the linker never sees them.  This is presently
done for Darwin by adding a byte of padding at the end of every zero-sized
object.  Note that from the user's point of view, the structure is still zero
size; sizeof() will return 0.

If varasm.c needs to know about this, then this logic should move there.
