Right. The existence of a statically initialized object whose size can
be determined at compile-time to be larger than the (notional) type size,
is specific to GCC. Here's another thing: the assembler output shows
.type f1, %object
.size f1, 4
f1:
.word 1
.word 2
.word 3
.word 4
Whatever you think about sizeof(), surely the object's symbol should
have its true size (16 in this case)?
