Subject: FYI: GCC warnings about strict-aliasing violation in glibc
Date: Sun, 10 Nov 2002 01:10:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <u8el9t7psz.fsf@gromit.moeb> (raw)


I got the appended warnings (just a quick grep) about violation of
strict-aliasing rules with a GCC 3.3 CVS compiler.  The majority comes
from the NSS code.  I suggest to get these fixed and will work on some
of them myself,

Andreas
