Proposed resolution:

Change 18.1, paragraph 5, to:

The macro offsetof accepts a restricted set of type arguments in this International Standard. If type is not a POD structure or a POD union the results are undefined. The result of applying the offsetof macro to a field that is a static data member or a function member is undefined."

Original text:

The macro offsetof accepts a restricted set of type arguments in this International Standard. type shall be a POD structure or a POD union (clause 9). The result of applying the offsetof macro to a field that is a static data member or a function member is undefined."

Revised text:

"If type is not a POD structure or a POD union the results are undefined."

Looks to me like the revised text should have replaced only the second sentence. It doesn't make sense standing alone.
