While trawling through old bugs I came across one from 2005: PR 21433 - The COMPONENT_REF case of expand_expr_real_1 is probably wrong.
The report looks correct in that argument 0 in COMPONENT_REF cannot be a CONSTRUCTOR. In my tests it's only been one of the following codes: array_ref component_ref mem_ref parm_decl result_decl var_decl The attached patch removes the CONSTRUCTOR code and replaces it with an assert verifying it doesn't come up there. Besides testing on x86_64-linux, the change is supported by comments in code and also in the internals manual (although that looks incorrect and should be changed to avoid suggesting the first operand is a decl). tree.def: /* Value is structure or union component. Operand 0 is the structure or union (an expression). Operand 1 is the field (a node of type FIELD_DECL). Operand 2, if present, is the value of DECL_FIELD_OFFSET, measured in units of DECL_OFFSET_ALIGN / BITS_PER_UNIT. */ DEFTREECODE (COMPONENT_REF, "component_ref", tcc_reference, 3) generic.texi: @item COMPONENT_REF These nodes represent non-static data member accesses. The first operand is the object (rather than a pointer to it); the second operand is the @code{FIELD_DECL} for the data member. The third operand represents the byte offset of the field, but should not be used directly; call @code{component_ref_field_offset} instead.
