I set -fno-strict-aliasing and didn't assume this option exists in all
other compilers.
The reason for this option was that I have macros for accessing memory
areas by assuming an arbitrary type for them, using ('C-ish') pointer
casts. (This memory area is originally accessed only by a pointer to
char.) I don't think it's possible to circumvent this problem using
unions, since the union itself would have to be pointer-casted to
char, again necessitating -fno-strict-aliasing.
