I think the warning is appropriate at all optimization levels. The
warning is telling the user that they are (implicitly) trying to take
the address of a register variable. As you say, the warning could be
improved by saying that the address-taken is happening implicitly as
part of a call to C::operator int(), so that the user does not react
with "Huh?! I didn't say &x!" -- but the fact that we warn seems
entirely appropriate.
