Extended Description
The following self-contained code example (reduced from a case in Wine) is rejected by Clang because the size of the array is deemed not a constant:
typedef unsigned long UINT_PTR, *PUINT_PTR;
typedef struct HHOOK__ {} *HKEY;
static HKEY special_root_keys[((UINT_PTR)((HKEY) 0x80000006) - (UINT_PTR)((HKEY) 0x80000000) + 1)];
The error emitted by clang:
t.c:3:13: error: variable length array declaration not allowed at file scope
static HKEY special_root_keys[((UINT_PTR)((HKEY) 0x80000006) - (UINT_PTR)((HKEY) 0x80000000) + 1)];
