The fix would be to make a union:
union {
gchar idaschars[16];
int idasints[4];
} id;
and access the appropriate sections.
id.idasints[0] = ebx;
id.idasints[1] = edx;
id.idasints[2] = ecx;
id.idaschars[12] = '\0';
then do the comparisons against id.idaschars.
Could you send a patch please, preferably generated from a git commit?
Ok. Attached.

Subject: [PATCH] Avoid aliasing error by using a union for id instead of casting address to a int*.
