Can someone test this function for me with a GCC built project?
It crashes when I run this function in a CodeWarrior built project.

void TestBug(void)
{
     union {
         char *p8;
         unsigned short *p16;
     } u;

     char *pBuf;
     unsigned short n;
     int i;

     if ((pBuf = (char *)malloc(40)) != NULL) {

         u.p8 = pBuf;

         for (i = 0; i < 38; i++) {

             n = *u.p16;  // Crashes when p16 is odd
             u.p8++;
         }

         free(pBuf);
     }
}

Thanks...
