Everything else is an optimizer BUG, which should be reported and
fixed.
The C{89,99} standard now defines the syntax and semantics of
theses terms.
Relevant for the optimizer: possible values of terms, assumptions
made on the static and dynamic behavior of these terms (add
anything I forgot).
So the optimizer should NEVER cause trouble if you write
completely valid C{89,99} and the compiler and environment
implement 100% of the semantics of it.
Compiler specific features should be seen as an addition to the
standard on this compiler. They follow the same rules stated
above.
