Unlike [] or [*] that declares an array of incomplete type. Since it is a function parameter, it will of course later get adjusted to a pointer to the first element. But it still has to be a valid declaration to begin with. Similarly, char arr[][] is invalid because it remains an incomplete type after adjustment (see C17 6.7.6.4 §4). gcc does allow [0] as an extension since that was commonly used for purposes of implementing the "struct hack" back in the days before flexible array members were standardized. The conclusion ought to be that gcc should let [0] through if compiled in -std=gnu23 mode but not in -std=c23 and/or -pedantic.
