Do you mean the "FLEX_ARRAY" thing?

You can ask for FLEX_ARRAY from the command line of your "make"
process.

There is this thing in git-compat-util.h

        #ifndef FLEX_ARRAY
        #if defined(__GNUC__) && (__GNUC__ < 3)
        #define FLEX_ARRAY 0
        #else
        #define FLEX_ARRAY /* empty */
        #endif
        #endif

The sources are written this way:

	struct foo {
        	... other members ...
                char last_member_that_is_flexible[FLEX_ARRAY];
	};

For older gcc, because we know about its lack of support, the
above turns into:

	struct foo {
        	... other members ...
                char last_member_that_is_flexible[0];
        }

But for recent enough compilers that grok the "flexible array
members", the above expands to:

	struct foo {
        	... other members ...
                char last_member_that_is_flexible[];
        }

Maybe your compiler needs -DFLEX_ARRAY=0 in CFLAGS?
