--- Comment #5 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
This behaviour is required by the C++ standard, GCC is not allowed to change
it.

In C++20 you will be able to use designated-initializers to select which me,ber
of the union to initialize:

t1 = { 1 ,"a", { .real=3.4 } } ;
t1 = { 1 ,"a", { .integer = 2 } } ;
