Description Tomáš Bžatek 2010-05-27 14:35:42 UTC 
Issue found during RPMDiff runs:

The build log on i686 has serious warnings that may cause run-time errors/crashes; suggest use of -fno-strict-aliasing:

   603  fm-directory-view.c: In function 'fm_directory_view_class_init':
   604  fm-directory-view.c:10583: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules

   608  fm-directory-view.c:10587: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules

This is a simple change, adding a CFLAG which is present in F12/F13 anyway.
