Please open a bug report: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/ But your chances of getting this implemented without doing it yourself are pretty small. Unfortunately, there are very few people working on the C FE right now, and the initializers code is probably one of the oldest and most obscure parts of the C FE. You may be lucky and the solution might be trivial, but first you would need to follow the code in a debugger and figure out where in the C FE this could be detected. Cheers, Manuel.
