It seems to be target independent, as it also happens on ARM. The following: static inline int readint (int* x) { return *x; } int test (int* x) { return readint (x); } compiles to (-O2): test: ldrb r3, [r0] ldrb r1, [r0, #1] ldrb r2, [r0, #2] orr r3, r3, r1, asl #8 ldrb r0, [r0, #3] orr r3, r3, r2, asl #16 orr r0, r3, r0, asl #24 bx lr
