Subject: Don't instantiate structures with FAMs.
X-Git-Tag: v1.4.1-rc1~7^2~4
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b4b1550315c6184ea50936be305a4f1c78ad16a8;p=git.git

Don't instantiate structures with FAMs.

Since structures with `flexible array members' are an incomplete datatype ANSI
C99 forbids creating instances of them. This patch removes such an instance
from `diff-lib.c' and replaces it with a pointer to a `struct
combine_diff_path'. Since all neccessary memory is allocated at once the number
of calls to `xmalloc' is not increased.
