Please excuse the messy formatting in my initial mail. Resending with proper
formatting.
This patch checks for negative character length in the array constructor, and
treats it as LEN=0.
A warning message is also printed if bounds checking is enabled.
Bootstrapped and regression tested the patch on x86_64-linux-gnu and
aarch64-linux-gnu.
