Hi, Since you all seem to hit a compiler option issue, rather than dropping optimizations from -O2 to -O1, what about specifically targeting Merced or McKinley CPU with -mtune=merced or -mtune=mckinley gcc option? There are also itanium and itanium1 as accepted keywords, but I don't know how they differ from merced. On a side note, I don't know what's the difference between the mckinley and itanium2 keywords (I'm currently rebuilding my whole Gentoo system using -mtune=itanium2, since I'm running Madison CPUs on my zx6000).
