Emacs compiled with "-g -O2" (the default) does not work, while -O1 does. This also explains why -ggdb3 worked, I never passed a optimisation switch, so Emacs was compiled without optimisations. Which GCC versions does this fail with? Does it fail with the latest GCC version? If so, we had better track it down so as to make a good GCC bug report. For this Emacs release, we can deal with it with a note in etc/PROBLEMS. But that note should say whether upgrading GCC is a solution. So would someone please try installing the latest GCC release and see?
