Then type based aliasing should make you shudder too, since it's very
much the situation of the compiler *not* doing what you say, but doing
substantially more work to figure out a faster way to have the same
effect. For that matter, any optimization at all should make you
shudder.
It's really a matter of degree. In this case there seems to be a
substantial amount of code that breaks when the compiler trys to do
sophisticated analysis on variable usage to determine what can be
stored where. This analysis is allowable by the ANSI standard, but it
seems that most people haven't written their code in a manner that's
portable wrt this analysis. So, the question becomes, "To what extent
can the compiler help people who aren't writing code conforming to
this particular aspect of the ANSI standard?"
