It does happen with the HP C compiler. Then it is probably a compiler bug. Chances are it affects just one function. If you care to spend time on it, you could try compiling parts of Emacs with one compiler and parts with the other until you narrow down which function is the locus of the problem. Or we could just write a note in PROBLEMS and MACHINES telling people not to use a certain version of the HP C compiler. Which version is that?
