Your PR is basically what we did prior to 186122ead26f3ae4c2bc9f6715d2a29d339fdc5a. The problem is that may run afoul of different UB, namely strict aliasing. (Though, I suppose we could probably also avoid that by making dk_indices char[].)

If VLAs work with whatever MSVC we're using, it seems fine to add it to PEP 7. At worst, we can #ifdef sanitizer it.
