--- Comment #1 from Florian Weimer <fw at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Presumably the idea is to enable -Werror=incompatible-function-pointer-types
(in spirit) because it is more severe than -Wincompatible-pointer-types? I'm
not sure this is actually true.

Your first example will not have ABI problems or strict-aliasing issues. It
seems rather harmless.

Your second example (even with “int x;” instead, which we do not warn about by
default) is likely to introduce strict-aliasing issues (obviously not in this
minimal fragment, but still).

If we want to error on incompatible-function-pointer-types by default, I think
we need to make some effort to refine what such incompatible function pointers
should be.
