Based on previous discussion on the mailing list, clang currently lacks support
for C99 partial re-initialization behavior:

Reference: http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/dr_253.htm
This patch attempts to fix this problem.
Given the following code snippet,
struct P1 { char x[6]; };
struct LP1 { struct P1 p1; };
struct LP1 l = { .p1 = { "foo" }, .p1.x[2] = 'x' };
// this example is adapted from the example for "struct fred x[]" in DR-253;
// currently clang produces in l: { "\0\0x" },
// whereas gcc 4.8 produces { "fox" };
// with this fix, clang will also produce: { "fox" };
