Package: gcc-3.0 Version: 1:3.0-4 Severity: normal S.s. You can take allegro3937 from incoming.d.o. or from ftp-mirrors when it is installed. gcc-3.0 can compile binaries and link to the existing liballegro*.so without any problems, but when compiling the library itself, the result is broken. Any application using the library crashes on startup. The library can be build properly with previous versions of gcc, so it must be a problem of gcc-3.0.
Note: this breakage also appears on i386, other plattform seems not to be affected. Note: Please don't take allegro or allegro3936 for tests. The bug appears with these versions too, but the packages have problems with linking of non-PIC code (caused by xlibs and libesd). Note: if you take allegro3937 for tests, edit rules and remove the small hack in the configure line that sets CC=gcc-2.95 on i386.
