This is not the same as bug 11751 as the variable used with ++ is not reused. Here the simple code:

sadd.i:
# 1 "sadd.c"
# 1 "<built-in>"
# 1 "<command line>"
# 1 "sadd.c"

typedef struct A A;

struct A {
        int no;
        A *sub;
};

void main()
{ A sub={0, ((void*)0)};
        A root={0, &sub};
        A *pos=&root;

        pos=&pos->sub[pos->no++];
        printf("%d %d %p %p %p\n", root.no, sub.no, &root, &sub, pos);
}


Here the compiler call:

<~/test> 85>sadd
0 1 0xbf995550 0xbf995558 0xbf995558

The problem is that the updated pos pointer is used to perform the ++ on the field "no" while the assignment should be actually the last statement. Also pos->no was needed and fetched before to actually calculate the new pos.

The problem is present even with -O0 on the gcc-4.0.2 (from SuSe 10.0) and gcc-4.1.0 (see above)

The compilers gcc-3.4.6, gcc-3.3.1 don't have that problem on the same platform  and on Tru64 5.1. Also the Tru64 5.1 standard C compiler does not have the problem.
