Subject: optimization/10423: -fvolatile switch not working in gcc 3.2-3 when using -O2

>Description:
Compile with following using "gcc -O2 -fvolatile -S":

void test(void)
{
  *(char *)0x100 = 1;
  *(char *)0x100 = 1;
  *(char *)0x100 = 1;
  *(char *)0x100 = 1;
}

The definition of -fvolatile should cause four writes to be generated - always.  With the 2.95 compiler that is what occurs.  With the 3.2-3 compiler, only one remains after optimization.   This is a serious problem for embedded, legacy programs.
