------- Comment #2 from pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org 2006-09-15 05:35 ------- 3.2.3 on x86 with -msse (since we did not have generic vectors until 3.3) works. And 3.3.3 fails (even with -msse). Note a better testcase is something like: #include <stdlib.h> __attribute__((vector_size(16))) int a = {1, 2}; int c = 1; __attribute__((vector_size(16))) int b = {1, 2};
int main(void) { int *b = (int*)&a; if (b[0] != 1) abort (); if (b[1] != 2) abort (); if (b[2] != 0) abort (); if (b[3] != 0) abort (); return 0; } -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29091
