------- Additional Comments From wilson at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-08-13 00:33 ------- The problem here is the DECL_RTL_SET_P tests in dbxout_global_decl and dbxout_symbol. Constants have a NULL DECL_RTL, and hence fail this test. This is OK, because we don't use the DECL_RTL when emitting debug info for a constant. However, everything else does need to have a valid DECL_RTL. It looks like deleting the redundant test in dbxout_global_decl and repositioning the test after the check for constants in dbxout_symbol case VAR_DECL would work.
Writing and testing the patch is left as an exercise for the reader. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23205
