Package: g++-3.0
Version: 1:3.0.4-7
Severity: important
The following bug report owes a lot to John Eaton's work. I reported a
problem with the octave2.1 package on the ia64 platform to him, the upstream
authors. Bdale kindly provided an account on ia64 for John.
There appear to (still) be some issues with g++-3.0 on ia64. Under some
optimisation switches, the executable is built, but segfaults. Under others,
g++-3.-0 dies.
The latter problem is detailed here. I quote from an email by John to
me. Note that the code in question is really part of GNU Octave, a program we
have successfully built hundreds of times on different platforms.

Subject: internal compiler error on ia64
OK, let's start with this one.
Here is the source file (pared down and simplified from what we really
have in lo-mappers.cc):
#include <complex>
extern std::complex<double> acosh (const std::complex<double>& x);
std::complex<double>
acos (const std::complex<double>& x)
{
return (std::real (x)) ? acosh (x) : acosh (x);
}
Here is the compile command and result:
g++-3.0 -v -save-temps -c -g foo-3.cc -o foo-3.o
