Thus code is undefined you have an acess of a char array as a struct.
Yes you are only taking the address of an element but it is still
considered an acess by the standards.

a bug in -Wstrict-aliasing=3
This is an example of a flaw in -Wstrict-aliasing=3 (this mode is
very bad,
produces many false positives on my project and I'm wondering why is
it
default?)
Gcc man page says that -Wstrict-aliasing=3 produces less false
positives than
-Wstrict-aliasing=2. This is counterexample, it produces "type-
punned" warning
in -Wstrict-aliasing=3 mode and doesn't warn in -Wstrict-aliasing=2.
I added
(void *) casts everywhere, but they don't quash the warning.
