Re: gcc 4.1.1: char *p = "str" puts "str" into rodata

[Ray Hurst]

Shouldn't the compiler error out here.
The statement: p = "" should have been p = '\0';
Or does the compiler treat them as equivalent.
It seems that only characters should be assigned to char's and strings 
are illegal

Don't you think that "" should end up in rw data?

Why?  It's not writable after all.
