When a (bash) environment variable TMP is set to a file with execution
rights 0755, gcc aborts with an internal error. E.g.:
# -- bash shell --------------------------------------------------------------
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 DF8JLP0J 1.5.5(0.94/3/2) 2003-09-20 16:31 i686 unknown unknown
Cygwin

$ cat a.c
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc , char *argv[]){
printf("Ok.\n");
return 0;
}
$ unset TMP
$ gcc -save-temps a.c
$ touch /tmp/file.txt
$ export TMP=/tmp/file.txt
$ gcc -save-temps a.c
$ chmod u+x /tmp/file.txt
$ gcc -save-temps a.c
$ chmod 0755 /tmp/file.txt
$ gcc -save-temps a.c
gcc: Internal error: Aborted (program collect2)
