The following testcase fails when compiled with -O. Somewhere along the line 
the assignment in test() gets removed. Code derived from fortran/match.c. 
 
 
int glob; 
 
void 
fn2(int ** q) 
{ 
  *q = &glob; 
} 
 
void test() 
{ 
  int *p; 
 
  fn2(&p); 
 
  *p=42; 
} 
 
int main() 
{ 
  test(); 
  if (glob != 42) abort(); 
  exit (0); 
}
