Bug ID: 84600
Summary: function inlining is confused by char * type cast
Product: gcc
Version: 6.3.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: popinet at basilisk dot fr
Target Milestone: ---

test.c
The attached code fails when run using:
gcc -Wall -Wextra -O2 test.c -o test && ./test
using -O1 or -fno-strict-aliasing or not using inlining fixes the problem.
Switching to gcc versions < 6 or to clang 3.8.1 also fixes the problem, as do
the various modifications suggested as comments in the code.
The fact that uncommenting the (always true) condition fixes the problem is
particularly curious.
Thank you for your attention.
