This is not an aliasing violation because of the exception for char, right? So the warning does not even highlight theoretical undefined behavior. On the other hand, that cast is still quite ugly. All string-related functions in the C library currently need it. It might obscure real type errors. Isn't this a problem with char8_t? Thanks, Florian
