It is perfectly reasonably to depend on implementation-dependent behaviour, though you would typically want to document the assumptions somewhere. The kindest thing you can say about code that needs -fno-strict-alias is that use of that flag turns certain undefined behaviour into implementation-dependent behaviour. I suppose if you want to do that, and make it absolutely clear in the code and documentation, then it is not too bad.
