   The C++11 spec says at 1.8p5   
      
   "Unless it is a bit-field (9.6), a most derived object shall have a   
   non-zero size and shall occupy one or more bytes of storage. Base class   
   subobjects may have zero size."   
      
   The following is supposed to be valid   
      
       int *x = new int[0];   
      
   The object created by "new int[0]" has zero size (int[0] == 0 *   
   sizeof(int)), but that contradicts the above quote.   
      
   How is this to be interpreted?
