Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: If we're worrying about undefined behaviour, it looks like recent optimizations have *introduced* new undefined behaviour in the form of strict aliasing violations. E.g., from ascii_decode:
unsigned long value = *(const unsigned long *) _p; (here _p has type const char *). This should really be fixed; compilers are known to make optimizations based on the assumption that this sort of undefined behaviour doesn't occur. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15144> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
