This also requires dynamic strings support. So, its "requires" line should be

# requires: synthetic_events error_log "char name[]' >> synthetic_events":README

BTW, some errors looks a bit odd.

I think there is a wrong "void" argument between ";", instead of invalid type.

> +check_error 'myevent char ^str;[]' # INVALID_NAME

This is also not an invalid name but '[]' is an invalid type.

Isn't it an incomplete command?
