Technically/pedantically, yes. Practically, given a known compiler,
you can most certainly influence the output by the choice of C code.
The case in point is if the compiler would use a variable or not for
a certain construct, and that seems entirely plausible.
I would imagine that C compilers that target embedded systems could
even document this to an extent, given that embedded programmers care
so much about such issues.
