Apologies for the wrong wordings in the comment. In the comment I mean, it seems like 
point at which sizeof gets evaluated during compilation has changed. I am not sure on it though.

I agree, solution suggested by you is better than the one in patch. I will make the suggested
changes as part of v2. Thanks.
