Thanks for the references, those are useful!
But what about "long long" on 32 bits machines. For example:
union {
long long a;
struct { char b1; long long b2; } b;
} u;
Will GCC perform similar optimizations as for the case of big structs? I
tried to play around with long long in Martin's example, but failed to
trigger "unexpected" behaviors in GCC.
