> Modern compiler policies don't even permit code that looks like like that anymore. Your compiler might see that and emit assembly that formats your hard drive with btrfs.
This is total FUD. Some sanitizers might be unhappy with that code, but that's just sanitizers creating problems where there need not be any.
The llvm policy here is that must alias trumps TBAA, so clang will reliably compile the cast of char* to uint32_t* and do what systems programmers expect. If it didn't then too much stuff would break.
