Wolfgang,
The opening post was a bad example, and it unfortunately is drawing attention.
I agree, it is invalid code for deferencing a NULL pointer. However, please
see my other posts, detailing how the actual issue is a performance bug (missed
optimization) regression in GCC 4.5.0 for the following (valid) code:
empty_t a;
empty_t b = a;
GCC4.4.2 did not do any memory copying in the above example, but GCC4.5.0 does.
