I get a warning about canonical types like this from one of my codes:

The problem is: whenever I use -save-temps, or run everything by hand
through -E and then use the same compiler with the same flags on the
result, the bug goes away. So for the moment, I'm a bit unsure how exactly
I can submit the code :-(
Doug, is there anything that you can glean from the output above that
would help in any way?
