Aha! Good. I added that to catch a problem with parallelism, but I couldn't figure out how to reproduce the problem in a test case. I'll investigate GCC's build and see if I can figure out why it's happening. Did you run make with -j, or just plain "make install"? ah> Also, 'make' seems to be using much more memory than the 3.80 ah> version.

OK, I'll take a look at valgrind or similar. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
