------- Comment #3 from rguenth at gcc dot gnu dot org 2009-01-16 09:27 ------- If you wouldn't generate a V_C_E for *(float*)&sv->i it would just work.
IMHO this should be invalid gimple anyway, as you V_C_E a register type but the V_C_E argument is not a register. Thus valid gimple would be either using a temporary or doing V_C_E <float>(*sv). -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38865
