Bug#218219: g++-3.3: -floop-optimize is unstable on PowerPC



Package: g++-3.3
Version: 1:3.3.2-1
Severity: important
Tags: sid

Perfectly fine code seems to give segmentation faults on PowerPC with
the new 
-floop-optimize flag.  I've only tested this with GCC 3.3.2 from Debian 
unstable. 
 
Here's a small example of code which gives SIGSEGV 
http://www.rashbox.org/~chlunde/gccloopbug.cc

The same report is available at http://gcc.gnu.org/PR12828

I think (hope) this may be the cause of some unstability on PowerPC
lately.  Disabling this option in g++ might be the best way to be sure
that Debian packages compiled with 3.3 are stable.
