The recent changes to convert warnings to errors didn't account for some
type-punning warnings in our Embedded PPC build due to the use of
strict-aliasing. Really we shouldn't be using strict-aliasing so this
change (which for some reason is in the open flags.m4 file) brings ppc
in-line with all other platforms and sets -fno-strict-aliasing
I will be pushing this to jdk9/dev as we need this fixed immediately.
Thanks,
David
