------- Comment #2 from bangerth at gmail dot com 2010-02-25 05:12 ------- I don't think we should be doing this. GCC strives to be standards-conforming and the requested feature would purposefully make us violate the standard.
There is a point for extensions, but I don't think changing the meaning of a perfectly well-formed program is not what we should be doing. The same effect can of course be achieved by simply adding the explicit cast to the code.
