(this also happens with 6.4.1, bug the bug reporter won't let me enter that as a
version

Comment 1 Brian Paul 2006-01-20 01:49:00 UTC

This looks like a compiler bug.  I'd suggest looking for a newer version of the
compiler or try a lower level of optimization below -O3.

Comment 2 Steve Evans 2006-01-20 03:20:19 UTC

Unfortunately I am not in a position to upgrade the compiler from gcc version
3.4.3 :-(

I have tried reducing the optimisation level, and even removed optimisation
entirely, but it made no difference.

GCC doesn't match the rest of the build environment.  Either upgrade GCC or install GNU binutils (GAS).
