I guess you mean this:

I can understand that in function calls you don't want to pass zero-sized structs
by copy.  What I don't understand is why this requires modifying the way gcc structs
are converted to llvm structs.  Surely when generating function parameters, you can
just skip the zero-sized structs at that point.

Best wishes,

Duncan.
