[Github-comments] [geany/geany-plugins] Scope breaks nightly with gcc 8 (#794)

[Colomban Wendling]

@elextr which nightlies?  The ones on nightly.geany.org currently break because of a cppcheck issue, which I believe to be a cppcheck bug because it builds fine, and always did build fine.

Yes, adding parentheses around might be a workaround, but it still looks like a cppcheck bug to me, unless indeed gcc 8 also fails and that's not a new bug but a new restriction coming from C11 or something -- which I would find odd, but well.

I'll try to investigate what I can, but the code does look legitimate to me.  A reasonable alternative could be using `MAX()` as it's what the code actually does IIUC:
```c
pointer_size = MAX(sizeof(void *), sizeof &memory_init);
```
but I don't see any good reason to change that line apart from working around a cppcheck bug yet.
