I ran Software Update on my Fedora 13 system, and now whenever I build
U-Boot, I get a bunch of warnings like this:
dlmalloc.c: In function 'malloc':
dlmalloc.c:2252: warning: dereferencing pointer '({anonymous})' does break
strict-aliasing rules
dlmalloc.c:2252: note: initialized from here

Can anyone explain why this is happening? I don't understand how a Fedora
update would change anything, since my cross-compile toolchain is not
distributed with Fedora, so it shouldn't have changed.

what version of u-boot exactly ? for what board/architecture ? what is your

bug report ...

Any recent version. Every version I've tried has this problem.

It appears to be any PowerPC board.

It's not a bug report. I was hoping that other people had already
seen this, since I'm not doing anything special.

all gcc-4.4+ compilers should show similar output. your host should have
nothing to do with it.
searching the archives shows people working on it, but no satisfactory
solution. feel free to get it working.
the standard Blackfin release is currently based on 4.3.5 which is why i'm not
seeing it and i'm not worrying about it ;).
