What compiler are you using?  I found this statement from
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/doc/AFPL/6.50/Make.htm :

   The DECC6.2-003 compiler has an optimization problem that may lead to
   warnings about the "ANSI aliasing rules". DEC (Compaq) can provide a
   fix for this problem. The DECC6.2-006 compiler apparently does not
   have the problem.
       
I am concerned about this because I use these type of constructs to
implement inheritance, etc.

Thanks,
