re PR middle-end/42874 (Error on correct code: sorry, unimplemented: function ‘foo’ can never be copied because it uses)

	PR middle-end/42874
	* tree-inline.c (cannot_copy_type_1): Removed.
	(copy_forbidden): Don't forbid copying of functions containing
	records/unions with variable length fields.

	* gcc.dg/vla-22.c: New test.
