Section "3.2.1. Rationale" of that proposal begins with
"This changes the specification when the operand of sizeof is
*not* an lvalue of VLA type [...]"
Note the "not" in the above sentence: "not an lvalue of VLA type".
And then it proceeds to demonstrate the proposed change with an
example in 3.2.2 where the `sizeof` in question (whose behavior will supposedly change) is clearly applied to an lvalue of VLA type!
So, what is that "not" doing in the initial sentence of 3.2.1? Is
this just a typo/miswording? Or am I missing something about the
intended meaning of that sentence?
