Very true, but I dont think I asked to compiler to use strict aliasing, can you send an example gcc line make spits out? I've checked a fix into CVS that should stop alising for most people anyway.
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -g -O2 -Wall -O6 -fomit-frame-pointer -fstrength-reduce -funroll-loops -fmove-all-movables -ffast-math -fPIC -DPIC -mcpu=i686 -march=i686 -c imp_1199.so.c

Anyone know why some gcc's check for aliasing?
however, when i use --enable-sse, gcc falls apart:
Oops. Yes, that a known problem, but I think the README file is a bit misleading - its supposed to be hinting that you should build FFTW with --enable-sse, not the plugins. gcc's automatic SSE support is not very good (which is all it enables IIRC), and used to produce worse code.
so i can safely use --enable-sse with fftw, when it produces an internal compiler error with swh-plugins???
If your gcc is new enough it might ne better, i'd be happy to hear if it is. I'l change the README.
