Bug ID: 121499
Summary: libgcobol is built with -fno-strict-aliasing
Product: gcc
Version: 16.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: build
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: cobol
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: sjames at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
$ grep -rsin fno-strict-aliasing libgcobol/
libgcobol/Makefile.in:414:@BUILD_LIBGCOBOL_TRUE@ -DIN_TARGET_LIBS
-fno-strict-aliasing
libgcobol/Makefile.am:55:AM_CXXFLAGS += -fno-strict-aliasing
I don't think we should have code in gcc.git that requires
-fno-strict-aliasing. It's not exactly setting a good example. (Of course, it's
different for bundled libs like zlib, but we don't even do it there (no need)).
Are there aliasing violations in libgcobol, or what's the origin of this?
