This seems to have been fixed with the http://reviews.llvm.org/D18008.

If "Entry" is 8 bytes in size, you might expect the byte size of "MyStruct" to be 16, and the offset of "num_entries" to be 0 and "entries" to be 8. Both offsets are less than or equal to the byte size of 16.

Debugging can happen just fine if you ignore this error, it is actually more of a warning, but we emit an error so users know to file a bug and hopefully get the compiler fixed.
