Bug 83584, which like this one is closed as a duplicate of 11234, is about
exactly that.

  void *f(void) { return (void *)f; }
  int main(void) { return 0; }

This is a strictly conforming program. It violates no syntax rule or
constraint, and exhibits no translation-time undefined behaviour, yet it
triggers a pedwarn, turning into an error with -pedantic-errors. It would have
undefined behaviour i f f were ever called, but it is not called.
