/ANSI_ALIAS /NOANSI_ALIAS (D) Directs the compiler to assume the ANSI C aliasing rules, thus giving it the freedom to generate better optimized code. The aliasing rules are explained in Section 3.3, paragraphs 20 and 25 of the ANSI C Standard. The default is /NOANSI_ALIAS for the /STANDARD=VAXC and /STANDARD=COMMON compiler modes. The default is /ANSI_ALIAS for all other modes.
