There aren't any at this point.  It was agreed to keep them out of the
pANS.  Also I think there was agreement that any such proposal would
have to include as thorough a review of the standard for potential
impact as I did when I proposed "short char".  The 0-sized object SIG,
if it's going to do anything at all, will have to determine how such a
proposal would fit into a future revised standard and come up with
some experimental implementations and applications that use the feature
in order to be able to justify adding it at some future date.  I haven't
seen enough genuine interest to justify all that work.
