Yes, and yes (though I'm not sure if any strict-alignment targets have
this peculiari

What does this warning do in cases where a type has different alignments
inside and outside structs? I'm thinking of something like
struct s { long long x; } *p;
/* ... */
(long long *)p
on 32-bit x86 - where long long's preferred alignment is 8 bytes, but in
structures it's 4 bytes. (Likewis

Hi,
as you know we have a -Wcast-align warning which works only for
STRICT_ALIGNMENT targets. But occasionally it would be nice to be
able to switch this warning on even for other targets.
Therefore I would like to add a strict version of this option
which can be invoked with -Wcast-align=strict
