Yes. I thought about this problem for a while, and the best
solution I came up with requires changes to compilers.
valgrind is successful in doing Purify-style analysis in the face of
bitfields, so I really think this is a limitation of Purify, not the
compiler. While having a Purify mode for compiling seems like a fine
idea, I wouldn't want to increase memory consumption in standard
builds just so Purify can work.
Regarding the "incorrect" structure size on Windows because MSVC
packs 'unsigned' and 'bool' bit fields separately, would you consider
declaring all bit fields as 'unsigned'?
I think that would be a good idea.
