When the program below is compiled with -O2, it goes into an endless loop.

#include <stdio.h>

int main (void)
{
  int mask;
  for (mask = 0; (mask & 7) != 4; mask += 0x55555555) {
    printf ("%x\n", mask & 7);
  }
}

The output of gcc -v is

------- Comment #1 from schwab at suse dot de  2008-08-01 10:59 -------
This depends on undefined behaviour when mask + 0x55555555 overflows.  Change
mask to unsigned to get defined behaviour.
