------- Comment #4 from rguenth at gcc dot gnu dot org 2008-12-12 11:24 ------- The access is ((const struct _Rb_tree_node *) &ctx.foo._M_t._M_impl._M_header.D.9518)->_M_value_field.pair_ptr
but _M_header is of type _Rb_tree_node_base (and is embedded in _M_impl). _Rb_tree_node_base does not have a _M_value_field member, so I do not see that the memory that is accessed is really "there". This "D.9518" thing may somehow magically cover for it (but it's at offset zero of _M_header), but certainly TBAA isn't aware that this is a legal access. Of course I lack complete understanding of how the implementation details of the rb tree are supposed to work. So, if this is not a libstdc++ problem then it is a C++ FE problem. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38477
