I do not observe this with
gcc (GCC) 3.2.1 20021207 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2.1-2)

could you please get 3.2.1 and check that this is indeed a regression in
gcc?

(def-call-out make-foreign-string (:arguments (s c-string :in :malloc-free))
  (:name "ffi_identity") (:language :stdc)
  (:return-type c-pointer))
(setf *x* (make-foreign-string "abcd"))

(with-c-var (p 'c-pointer *x*) (cast p '(c-ptr (c-array uint8 4))))
==> #(97 98 99 100)

(with-c-var (p 'c-pointer *x*) (cast p '(c-ptr (c-array character 4))))
==> "abcd"
