[Bug rtl-optimization/35643] New: gcc-4.2 -O1 -fstrict-aliasing misoptimization

["edwintorok at gmail dot com" <gcc-bugzilla@gcc.gnu.org>]

When I compile the testcase with -O2, or with '-O1 -fstrict-aliasing' incorrect
code is generated. The testcase calls abort() in this case.

This is a regression in gcc-4.2 only: gcc-4.1 and gcc-4.3 do not show the bug.

$ gcc-4.2 -O1 test.i -o ok && ./ok
$ gcc-4.2 -O2 test.i -o fails && ./fails
Aborted
$ gcc-4.2 -O1 -fstrict-aliasing test.i -o fails2 && ./fails2
Aborted
$ gcc-4.2 -O3 test.i -o fails3 && ./fails3
Aborted

The testcase gives no warnings:
$ gcc-4.2 -Wall -W -O2 -Wstrict-aliasing test.i

The original code that  is miscompiled is ClamAV, but only if -O3 is used.
I created an initial reduced testcase using delta. 
Manually inlining some functions show this bug even at -O2 on the reduced
testcase.

I reproduced this on 2 different systems:

I also reproduced the bug with gcc 4.2.3 built with --enable-checking=yes:
edwin@lightspeed2:~$ gcc-4.2.3/inst/bin/gcc -O1 -fstrict-aliasing test.i -o
fails && ./fails
Aborted
