B const * array[ ] in gobal

[Christian Hackl]

This shouldn't compile. I don't see any user defined overload
of D::operator&, so & is the built in operator, which requires
an lvalue.

I understand your explanation but where can I find in the Standard
why this shouldn't compile ?
gcc version 4.0.1 and around 4.4 gave warning but created exe.
Visual C++ 2008 Express gave no warning and error at the
highest warning level.

That's because you must tell VC not to use Microsoft's language
extensions by specifying /Za. With /Za specified, you'll get the
following errors:

vc.cpp(37) : error C2102: '&' requires l-value
vc.cpp(37) : error C2466: cannot allocate an array of constant size 0
