| It's not a compiler bug.  It is a C99 bug, or more exactly, a
| feature.  C99 changed the semantic of the C language with respect to
| aliasing questions.   Now, the compiler can assume that pointer to
| different types points to different memory location.  This breaks all
| the OO code written in C.
|
| This is a very good idea that the compiler issues a warning message
| because the semantic of language really changed and you want to revert
| to the old semantic.
|
| The make package MUST add -fno-strict-aliasing.  It is not a
| convenience to get rid off warnings.
