           Summary: Bogus pedantic warning when using offsetof(type,
                    field[n])
           Product: clang
           Version: 2.9
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: MacOS X
            Status: NEW

          Priority: P
         Component: Frontend

If you use an expression like

  offsetof(struct hello_s, stuff[99])

when compiling with -ansi -pedantic, you get a warning "using extended field
designator is an extension".  The C89 standard says:

"The member-designator shall be such that given

         static  type t;

then the expression &(t.  member-designator ) evaluates to an address
constant."

I can't find anything which says this is any kind of extension.  And,  for what
it's worth, gcc's pedantic mode doesn't complain.

Test code attached.
