The invalid code below gives an "undefined reference" linker error on GCC 4.0.1
at -O0, but not at -
O1; GCC 3.3.4 gives an error at both optimizations. This may not be a bug, if
the version 4 optimizer is
being cleverer than the version 3 optimizer; but the failure to reject the
invalid code might be
considered a regression.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>
class Foo {
public:
static const uint16_t kErrorCmd = 42;
};
static uint32_t TestCmd(const uint16_t & cmd)
{
return (cmd == 42) ? 17 : 0;
}
int main()
{
printf("%u", TestCmd(Foo::kErrorCmd) );
}

Here's the correct rejection:

/tmp/cc3Hoo7z.o(.text+0x47): In function `main':
