so... you're suggesting a new flag, then?

Ah, yes, -Wpedantic does detect the invalid conversion.  But few projects use
-Wpedantic (GCC itself doesn't) and enabling the warning in -Wall or -Wextra
would likely lead to lots of noise for code that converts between object and
function pointers (POSIX requires it to work).

A warning implemented in a front end can also only detect questionable
conversions but not the actual writes, which is what the warning I'm working on
does (i.e., detect stores into read-only storage).

-Wpedantic catches it:

$ /usr/local/bin/gcc -c -O2 -S -Wall -Wextra -pedantic
-fdump-tree-optimized=/dev/stdout 95485.c
95485.c: In function 'f':
95485.c:6:20: warning: ISO C forbids passing argument 1 of '__builtin_memset'
between function pointer and 'void *' [-Wpedantic]

function
  |^

See also pr90404.  I'm working on a solution for that, and I expect it to
handle this as well.
