--- Comment #3 from Martin Sebor <msebor at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
The phrasing of the warning could stand to be made clearer but it is by design.
With the exception of a union with a /common initial sequence/, it's not
valid to access [members of] an object of one type (struct list) using a
pointer to an incompatible type (struct ref). It doesn't matter if the offset
of the member is less than the size of the object.
