I'd like to correct my statement here. It turns out that Apple's gcc does not enable -fstrict-aliasing with -O2, so I did not actually do this test properly. I will be rebuilding the modules with -fstrict-aliasing -Wstrict-aliasing=2 explicitly this weekend and will send patches to re-add -fno-strict-aliasing explicitly to the modules' configure.ac
On a side note, util-macros should not do the -fno-strict-aliasing -> -Wstrict-aliasing=2 change until all affected modules have had a release with the explicit -fno-strict-aliasing in-module. I'll just hold on to that patch locally and anyone interested in testing can certainly make the change locally.
