for just clalification...

AFAIK, C language specification don't gurantee point same value.
compiler can insert pad between struct-member and member, but not insert
into array.

However, all gcc version don't do that. I think. but perhaps I missed
some minor gcc release..


So, I also like Dave's idea. but it only personal feeling.
