Where are you getting this from? There has not been any union compound
literal like that since 2014 because it was found not to be valid in
constant expressions and CMPLX is required to produce a constant
expression. Commit 5ff2a118c64224789b7286830912425e58831b2b is
informative, and the message notes that CMPLX is a C11 feature, so
since the musl source is supposed to build with just C99 (+ minimal
extensions) perhaps we should drop internal use of CMPLX anyway...

Are you sure? There's no asm in catan.c. If %%ax appears in what gets
passed to the assembled for this file, it's emitted by PCC itself.

In that case it sounds like it very well might be a bug in PCC's
codegen rather than anything in our inline asm (elsewhere) which I
originally suspected it was.
