Thanks for the swift reponse.

Let me explain this a bit. In our build process we compile thousands of files
and the outcome should be stable.

If we do adapt a file we try to minimize the number of modified files in the
build output as we need to do a lot of testing for our products. 

The provided reproduction scenario has been reduced from a situation in our
build in which adding a (unused) typedef in a headerfile results in a a
different output of the compiled c-source (which of course includes the
headerfile). Obviously the unused typedef's won't end up in the object file,
but than the changed string literal symbols is an unwanted side-effect.
