Because I know the flexible array member data isn't dangling. I have allocated
space immediately following the member that I would like to use. It has been
working perfectly in previous versions. I understand there could be alignment
concerns and if that is the case I am happy to declare it packed. Finally, the
workaround gives the same outcome by typing some more code.
