            Bug ID: 101925
           Summary: reversed storage order when compiling with -O3 only
           Product: gcc
           Version: 12.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3

          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: george.thopas at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

/*
     reversed storage order when compiling with -O3 only. 
     this time sets up an all big-endian struct 
     from an all little-endian one
     no warnings 

     Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
     gcc versie 11.1.0 (Gentoo 11.1.0-r2 p3) 
     gcc-trunk too

     $ gcc -Wall -Wextra -O3 test.c 
     $ ./a.out 
     Abort
