Thanks for your patience, I'm not meaning to go off topic, just to discover exactly what gcc does with -fno-strict-aliasing: I think that is itself on-topic: I don't see any other place I could find out (other than reading all the code myself, which is a rather daunting task :) Anyhow I'm satisfied with the answers, thanks again everyone who commented. Just for context: my current interest is learning about exactly what optimisations gcc/g++ does and doesn't do in what circumstances, because I have a compiler which generates C++: to get my compiler to generate fast code, I have to know what kind of code g++ likes and what it doesn't handle so well. Again, thanks for your patience. -- John Skaller <skaller at users dot sf dot net> Felix, successor to C++: http://felix.sf.net
