The european, transparent mirror of the SF CVS-tree has a lag of more 
than 22 hours. Annoying :(

The fix looks good to me (in fact I was playing with exactly the same 
idea) and hopefully fixes the problem for the cwpro8, too. See:

http://www.meta-comm.com/engineering/resources/cvs_RC_1_30_0/cs-win32_metacomm-links.html#checked_delete_test%20cwpro8

That given the comment should read "some compilers" instead of "Intel 7" 
and it is not complete as a zero-sized array should also be an error 
(8.3.4/1), but the compiler happily accepts it in system headers, too.

Regards, Daniel

PS: Maybe it's my lousy english, but being called the "reporter" of the 
problem makes me feel like a user just complaining "Hey, it doesn't 
work!" instead of a developer analysing the problem and discussing 
fixes. I ignored it for the ADL-fix, but now it happens again :-/
