For- char str[2][16] = {"thisis16charslo","thisis16charslo"}; On ppc64 we will get - static char C.0[2][16] = {"thisis16charslo", "thisis16charslo"}; while on x86_64 - str[0] = "thisis16charslo"; str[1] = "thisis16charslo"; and this patch makes this output much worse (although it should be applied only on sparse data) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31150
