But if we were to do so, perhaps we'd want something like what I
gave at https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqy25lwa86.fsf@gitster.g/ (local) in
its place to avoid confusing people.

That sounds like a good course of action to me.

Please note that the MSVC-related adjustment of the `FLEX_ARRAY` block is
still needed, I think.

The "something like what I gave ... to avoid confusing people" patch
is following up on the direction to drop the patch with -std=gnu99
change.  IIRC, your MSVC adjustment was to tweak that patch we were
discussing of dropping, so even if it is still needed, it won't be
part of what I was doing.
