I looked at the generated assembly, first with my system default
gcc-3.3.3, and then (once I observed the opposite of what you

Yes, I often read (dis)assembly, because I get paid to debug
low-level toolchain problems in my day job.

I could have read gcc source, but I am not that familiar with it,
so it probably would have taken much longer.
