You need an optimisation option, -Ox, to enable optimisations, but you
don't have to use -O2 to get optimisations that are normally enabled
by -O2, e.g. -O1 -fstrict-aliasing will enable strict aliasing.
So to answer the first question, use -O1, turn off the O1
optimisations you don't want, and selectively enable the ones you do
want.
Thanks a lot.
