Hello!
It works to compile GNU Emacs 24.0.90 with standard GCC 4.5.3 on Mac
OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard) with PowerPC 7447A, but not with the Apple
modified compilers (with support for Apple frameworks, for compilation
for a few different architectures at the same time, -fast optimiser
switch, etc.). The configure command was:
env LANG=C PATH=/sw/bin:$PATH ./configure --without-sound --without-
dbus --without-pop --without-gconf --without-gpm --without-gsettings --
without-gif --without-jpeg --without-png --without-rsvg --without-tiff

Both compilers compile OK when used with -O0 and -Os. So it's
something that -fast adds or -Os removes. I'll continue my experiments
next morning!

-fast
Optimize for maximum performance. -fast changes the overall
optimization strategy of GCC in order to produce the fastest possible
running code for PPC7450 and G5 architectures. By default, -fast
optimizes for G5. Programs optimized for G5 will not run on PPC7450.
To optimize for PPC7450, add -mcpu=7450 on command line.
-fast currently enables the following optimization flags (for G5 and
PPC7450). These flags may change in the future. You cannot override
any of these options if you use -fast except by setting -mcpu=7450 (or
-fPIC, see below).
-O3 -O3
-falign-loops-max-skip=15 -falign-loops-max-skip=15
-falign-jumps-max-skip=15 -falign-jumps-max-skip=15

specified).
-fsched-interblock -fsched-interblock
-fgcse-sm -fgcse-sm
-mpowerpc64 -mpowerpc64
To build shared libraries with -fast, specify -fPIC on the command
line as -fast turns on -mdynamic-no-pic otherwise.
Important notes: -ffast-math results in code that is not necessarily
IEEE-compliant. -fstrict-aliasing is highly likely to break non-
standard-compliant programs. -malign-natural only works properly if
the entire program is compiled with it, and none of the standard
headers/libraries contain any code that changes alignment when this
option is used.
On Intel target, -fast currently enables the following optimization
flags:
-O3 -O3
-fomit-frame-pointer -fomit-frame-pointer
-fstrict-aliasing -fstrict-aliasing
-momit-leaf-frame-pointer -momit-leaf-frame-pointer
-fno-tree-pre -fno-tree-pre
-falign-loops -falign-loops
All choices of flags enabled by -fast are subject to change without
notice.
My recent series of tests is with:
env LANG=C PATH=/sw/bin:$PATH ./configure --without-sound --without-
dbus --without-pop --without-gconf --without-gpm --without-gsettings --
without-gif --without-jpeg --without-png --without-rsvg --without-tiff

Now, at high noon, I already found that -malign-natural produces the
failure – the documentation warns about its use!
(I wonder whether the sequence of the flags passed to the compiler
plays a role. I'll also try an additional test à la '-fast -mcpu=7450 -
mtune=G4' or '-fast -mcpu=7450 -mtune=7450' to be sure that non-G4
options are effectively suppressed. -fastf is also an option I should
consider and read again about it.)

Besides -malign-natural also -mpowerpc64 triggers the failure, though
I did not test -mcpu=G5, which obviously cannot be right on a G4
machine.
I presume GCC 4.0.1 behaves in this case exactly like GCC 4.2.1 so I
stop further testing – for the X client variant. I'll try again with
the NS/Cocoa/Aqua variant.

This makes no difference, -fast does not work! I also made the cross
check leaving out the configure option --with-wide-int and produced
the same failure. So GNU Emacs 24.0.90 cannot be compiled with -fast
and the Apple modified compilers. Before it was possible. Used in
February… (since then compiled with GCC 4.4 or 4.5 or other C compilers)
(I can try to restore the GNU Emacs 24.0.50 source code from backups
to check when -fast started to fail.)

This bug report is similar to bug#11236: the Apple compiler switch -fast is used. GCC 4.5.3 is not modified by Apple, so it misses the -fast switch, optimisation is then achieved by -Os
