subscripted value is neither array nor pointer

May be, we never know.  That's why it always helps to have as much
information as possible.

In the preprocessed code you posted, you'll find:

# 19 "/usr/include/linux/ext2_fs.h" 2 3
[snip]
struct ext2_inode {
[snip]
                        __u32   l_i_reserved2;
                } linux2;

Note, it is not an array, because it comes from
/usr/include/linux/ext2_fs.h, not from .../lib/ext2_fs.h.  And there's
something else intriguing me:

However, the original command line said: -I../../lib -I../../../lib
Can you confirm that the GCC snapshot is indeed modifying the second
-I flag?
