Building the current code with clang and the latest gnulib fails due to the use of a variable-length-array (vla) warning, which turns in to an error due to the presence of the -Werror during the build. The gnulib team stated that their code should not be built with -Werror. At present, the only way to do this is for the complete code-base, by using the --disable-werror option to configure. Rather than doing this, and failing to gain any benefit that it provides, instead, if building with clang, this patch makes it possible to specifically not error on vlas, while retaining the -Werror functionality otherwise.

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader. GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more robust, more powerful, and more portable. See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2. See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the GRUB 2 data and program files. See the file MAINTAINERS for information about the GRUB maintainers, etc. If you found a security vulnerability in the GRUB please check the SECURITY file to get more information how to properly report this kind of bugs to the maintainers. Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information. The URL is <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html>. More extensive documentation is available in the Info manual, accessible using 'info grub' after building and installing GRUB 2. There are a number of important user-visible differences from the first version of GRUB, now known as GRUB Legacy. For a summary, please see: info grub Introduction 'Changes from GRUB Legacy'
