What does that option do? Is it practical to enable it for the entire
backend?

And isn't this a straightforward compiler bug they should be notified
about?

Sounds like the -fno-strict-aliasing option for gcc, the compiler is
making some assumptions about the code that arn't true, so we tell the
compiler not to do that.

Have a nice day,
