------- Additional Comments From ncm-nospam at cantrip dot org 2005-01-21 16:39 ------- I agree that 8670 is a separate bug.
The referenced test 2.cc can be made to fail more reliably with the following changes: First, leave enough space for alignment adjustments, even on 128-bit machines: - typedef std::tr1::array<char_type, 32> array_type; + typedef std::tr1::array<char_type, 256> array_type; Then, make sure extern_array itself is aligned more or less predictably. - array_type extern_array; + union + { + array_type extern_array; size_t sdummy; double ddummy; char* pdummy; + }; Finally, make sure the storage passed to the allocator is misaligned: - allocator_type a(&extern_array); + allocator_type a(&extern_array[1]); I don't know how many other tests should be adjusted similarly. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19495
