>Description:
In the example below, '&a' is the address of a local copy of 'a' not of 'a'.
if the type of 'a' is changed to int, it works as expected.
>How-To-Repeat:
#define TA char
#define TB int
#define TC int
void foobar(TA a, TB b, TC c);
int main()
{
foobar(1,2,3);
return 0;
}
void foobar(TA a, TB b, TC c)
{
printf("a == %i claims %x\n", a, &a);
printf("a == %i really %x\n", (&b)[-1], (&b)-1);
printf("b == %i %x\n", b, &b);
printf("c == %i %x\n", c, &c);
