[Bug c/36093] New: __align__ produces incorrect results in certain cases

["zhirsch at vmware dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Hi,

The following code produces incorrect results under -O1 (or higher), but works
fine under -O0 for gcc 4.1.2 and 4.2.3. gcc 3.4.6 produces the correct result
for all optimization levels.

# 1 "t.c"
# 1 "<built-in>"
# 1 "<command line>"
# 1 "t.c"
extern int printf(const char *format, ...);

typedef struct Bar {
      char c[129];
} Bar __attribute__((__aligned__(128)));

typedef struct Foo {
      Bar bar[4];
} Foo;

Foo foo[4];

int main()
{
   int i, j;
   Foo *foop = &foo[0];

   for (i=0; i < 4; i++) {
      Bar *bar = &foop->bar[i];
      for (j=0; j < 129; j++) {
         bar->c[j] = 'a' + i;
      }
   }

   printf("foo[0].bar[3].c[128] = %c\n", foo[0].bar[3].c[128]);
   return 0;
}

The expected behavior when the resulting program is run is:

 foo[0].bar[3].c[128] = d

The actual behavior is:

 foo[0].bar[3].c[128] =
