A little more information...

A slightly smaller test case is:
----------------------------
static void
b (int *i, int *j)
{
}

int
main (void)
{
  int i, j;

  S x1[2][2];
  S *x[2] = { x1[0], x1[1] };
  S **E = x;

  for (i = 0; i < 2; i++)
    for (j = 0; j < 2; j++)
      E[j][i].T1 = 1;

  b (&j, &i);
  printf ("result %.6e\n", E[1][1].T1);
  return 0;
}
----------------------------

The line "E[j][i] =..." seems to be the problem:
With j first, then i, the output is wrong (and you get a segfault as a 
bonus).
With i first, then j ("E[i][j]=..")  you get the  correct result.

# gcc-3.3 -O t.c
# a.out
result 1.000000e+00
# gcc-3.3 t.c -O -fstrength-reduce -fstrict-aliasing -fforce-mem -fgcse
# a.out
result 2.676500e+00
Segmentation fault

Again, disable any of these four options and you get the expected output.

(For the record, this is on i586-pc-linux-gnu.)
