'2' is an integer literal, and only combinations of [ulUL] are allowed for integer literals. '2' is an invalid floating literal, as it has neither a fraction part nor an exponent. It cannot be typed as a float with "F" because it is not a floating literal.

Use 2.F or 2.0F instead.

You're right, and those variants work fine.
But the problem isn't that {float f = 2f;} compiles or doesn't compile, but that it behaves differently dependent on the -arch flag.

I still can't reproduce this.

float f = 2F;
