`make universe' uses it though.

In this case, the warning (and consequently the tinderbox error)
disappears if you specify *either* of -fno-strict-aliasing or
-fstrict-aliasing.  Wierd.

I don't understand why that particular warning was generated i
in the first place, the cast was between two structures with
identical layout, differing only in name.

Anyhow, its been worked around.
