The optimizer has knowledge about runtime functions. And this knowledge may be
wrong when the runtime library is translated for the 65C02, because
(a) register usage differs, and
(b) no one has ever tested a library compiled for the 65C02.
But since these problems are triggered by using the optimizer, and you state
that the problems vanish when doing so, I would say that your problems have a
different cause.

Yes.

Fastcall functions may not called without a prototype in scope. This is also
true for most non fastcall functions, but with a fastcall function it will
definitely fail. And, there may be problems with function pointers when mixing
__fastcall__ and non __fastcall__ functions. But programs experiencing
problems should be *really* rare.

Just using the struct as any other struct variable should work. You may have
an error somewhere in your definition, but since "the compiler complains
bitterly" is just as good as "it does not work", I'm not able to diagnose
anything else:-)
