Linux 2.4.20
gcc 3.2.2
>Description:
Expected o/p : "abcde", but with -O2 get "bcde":

int main( int argc, char ** argv )
{
  char str[17];
  sprintf( str, "ABCDE" );
  char * p = str;
  for( ;*p ; )
    *p++ = tolower(*p);
  printf( "'%s'\n", str );
  return 0;
}

Yes it's nasty coding; no *I* didn't write it in its wild form :)
