# Description
When compiling with clang++ at -O0, a float -> __bf16 -> float conversion using a templated static_cast chain produces an incorrect result (0.0f instead of the expected value). This issue disappears when optimization is enabled (-O1 or higher).
# Reproduction:
Compile the following code with: `clang++ filename.cpp`
```cpp
#include <iostream>
template<typename D, typename S> D fp_cast(S x) {
return static_cast<D>(x);
}
float do_cast(float x) {
return fp_cast<float>(fp_cast<__bf16>(x));
}
int main() {
float t0 = 3.f;
float t2 = do_cast(t0);
std::cout << t2 << std::endl;
return 0;
}
```
*Expected behavior*: `do_cast(3.f)` should return `3.0f`.
*Actual behavior*: It returns `0.0f`.
