>Description:
With optimizations enabled, "f=x; y=*(type*)&f;" reads garbage 
on 'y' unless 'type'=='char' (problem with memory alias?) 

"f=x; g(); y=*(type*)&f;" works fine if g() is not
inlined.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile with -O0, execute.
Compile with -O2, execute.
Uncomment the commented line.
Test again.
