I see. It just wasn't clear to me from your comment in the PR
wether you considered the code to be a problem at all.

Do you prefer the union version, then please see Andreas Jäger's patch,
or my local version with more varibles and casts, it's rather untested,
or just -fno-strict-aliasing for the offending code parts
or a combination of all of these?
