+ * This macro obfuscates arithmetic on a variable address so that gcc
+ * shouldn't recognize the original var, and make assumptions about it.
+ *
+ * This is needed because the C standard makes it undefined to do
+ * pointer arithmetic on "objects" outside their boundaries and the
+ * gcc optimizers assume this is the case. In particular they
+ * assume such arithmetic does not wrap.
+ *
+ * A miscompilation has been observed because of this on PPC.
+ * To work around it we hide the relationship of the pointer and the object
+ * using this macro.
+ *
* Versions of the ppc64 compiler before 4.1 had a bug where use of
* RELOC_HIDE could trash r30. The bug can be worked around by changing
* the inline assembly constraint from =g to =r, in this particular
