I had this problem with an older egcs on an Alpha. What I did was
took out the "-O2" option for just the one file. Try compliling
linear.c by hand with O2 turned off. If it works then re-run the
make
I have also seen gcc fail this way because of faulty RAM. but this
is normally random. Marginal RAM would cause random seg faults
