I like the idea of verifying that the code is consistent. But the above
structure assumes that zero-length arrays are valid, and they are not in
standard C (at least not in C90, I suppose C99 could have added that?).
As an alternative, you could have an N_WIDTH_BYTES entry at the end of the
width_bytes array, and then have something like:
#if N_SIZE_SPECS != N_WIDTH_BYTES
#error Array size mismatch
#endif
