[PATCH] Compilation: zero-length array declaration.

ISO C99 (and GCC 3.x or later) lets you write a flexible array
at the end of a structure, like this:

	struct frotz {
		int xyzzy;
		char nitfol[]; /* more */
	};

GCC 2.95 and 2.96 let you to do this with "char nitfol[0]";
unfortunately this is not allowed by ISO C90.

This declares such construct like this:

	struct frotz {
		int xyzzy;
		char nitfol[FLEX_ARRAY]; /* more */
	};

and git-compat-util.h defines FLEX_ARRAY to 0 for gcc 2.95 and
empty for others.

If you are using a C90 C compiler, you should be able
to override this with CFLAGS=-DFLEX_ARRAY=1 from the
command line of "make".
