I found that this was fixed in 10.3 and 11.1 by
https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/commit/e2882e76089cecdc268d0835c54cabfa80b5b0be

So yes only happens in 10.2. Thanks for checking that!

This compiles just fine for me, even with -O0.  Does this only happen with
some older version of the compiler?  Are some special flags needed?

It goes further: Even the usual conversion rules for pointer types don't apply:

void foo(__vector_pair*){}
void bar(const __vector_pair*){}
int main(){
  __vector_pair p;
  foo(p); // works
  bar(p); // fails
}
