Please consider this patch. The additional warnings would be useful 
IMHO, are also emitted by clang, and the change seems trivial.

> "-Warray-bound". "-Warray-bounds=1" corresponds to "-Warray-bound".
> For higher warning levels more warnings about optional accesses
> outside of arrays are emitted. For example, warnings for
> arrays accessed through pointers are now emitted:
> 
> void foo(int (*a)[3])
> {
>       (*a)[4] = 1;

> 
> Also warnings for arrays which are the last element of a struct
> are emitted, if it is not a flexible array member or does not use
> the zero size extensions.

> Because there is the risk of false positives, the higher warning
> level is not used by default.

* gcc/tree-vrp.c (check_array_ref): Emit more warnings
       for warn_array_bounds >= 2.
* gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/Warray-bounds-11.c: New test-case.
* gcc/c-family/c.opt: New option -Warray-bounds=.
* gcc/common.opt: New option -Warray-bounds=.
* gcc/doc/invoke.texi: Document new option.
