I ran some tests.  I configured with --disable-shared to avoid picking 
up the Debian packages shared libsqlite3.so.

   1. make CFLAGS="-g -O" clean sqlite3 ; ./sqlite3 foo "select 1.0 /
      3.0 ; " yields 0.33333333 as expected.
   2. make CFLAGS="-g -O2" clean sqlite3 ; ./sqlite3 foo "select 1.0 /
      3.0 ; " yields "" -- the bad situation.
   3. The GCC 4.3 manual shows the
      
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.3.0/gcc/Optimize-Options.html#Optimize-Options
      gives an explicit list of which optimizations -O2 turns on. I
      wrote a simple "foreach" loop to try each additional optimization
      by itself.  -fschedule-insns seems to cause an internal GCC error.
      $ foreach i (`cat opt_options `)
      foreach? echo "Optimization: $i"
      foreach? make CFLAGS="-g -O $i" clean sqlite3 > /dev/null
      foreach? ./sqlite3 foo "select 1.0 / 3.0 ; "
      foreach? end

   4. I tried -ffast-math too with make CFLAGS="-g -O -ffast-math" clean
      sqlite3 > /dev/null ; ./sqlite3 foo "select 1.0 / 3.0; "
      0.333333333333333
      it yielded the correct answer
   5. According to the GCC 4.3 documentation, the following should be
      equivalent to "-g -O2" but it also dies with an internal GCC error.

   6. If I drop -fschedule-insns from the list of optimizations, I get
      the following:
      $ make CFLAGS="-g -O -fthread-jumps -falign-functions
      -falign-jumps -falign-loops -falign-labels -fcaller-saves
      -fcrossjumping -fcse-follow-jumps -fcse-skip-blocks
      -fdelete-null-pointer-checks -fexpensive-optimizations -fgcse
      -fgcse-lm -foptimize-sibling-calls -fpeephole2 -fregmove
      -freorder-blocks -freorder-functions -frerun-cse-after-loop
      -fsched-interblock -fsched-spec -fschedule-insns2
      -fstrict-aliasing -fstrict-overflow -ftree-pre -ftree-vrp" clean
      sqlite3 > /dev/null ; ./sqlite3 foo "select 1.0 / 3.0; "
      0.333333333333333
      According to the GCC manual this is supposed to do all the
      optimizations that -O2 does except -fschedule-insns.

I am not sure what to make of all this.
