------- Additional Comments From pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-05-15 18:07 ------- Here is as reduced as I could get it: extern char *strcpy (char *__restrict __dest, __const char *__restrict __src);
extern char *foo (void); extern void *malloc(__SIZE_TYPE__) __attribute__((malloc)); char v[100]; void baz() { char *vec; char buf[512]; char *p = buf; while (v[(*p)]) p++; if (*p != '#' && (p = foo()) != 0) { strcpy ((char*)malloc(10), p); } } Note it works with the C front-end but that is only because of the difference in the trees which are produced (stupid C++ front-end produces more trees for the if statement). -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21584
