In the following program...
==========
typedef struct
{}a;
typedef a b[1];

int main() {
	b  *f;
	f = (b *) malloc(sizeof(*f)); //select *f
	return 0;
}
==========

If you select '*f' (on line 7), and invoke the Extract Local Variable refactoring, CDT produces the following incorrect code:

==========
typedef struct
{}a;
typedef a b[1];

int main() {
	b  *f;
	b extracted_variable = *f;
	f = (b *) malloc(sizeof(extracted_variable)); //extract *f
	return 0;
}
==========

The array is initialized from non-constant array expression.
