Bug#473426: g++-4.3: regression with memory consuption ?

[Christian Marillat <marillat@debian.org>]

Package: g++-4.3
Version: 4.3.0-2
Severity: normal
   
Hi,

g++ 4.3 is unable to compile the libs/libmythtv/dbcheck.cpp source in mythtv
package on powerpc and sparc (a bug report is needed for this arch ?).

Of course I don't see this problem with g++ 4.2.

The problem :

g++ eat all the memory and then swap forever. I've killed the process after
4 hours of 'work'.

You can get the tarball and the debian diff here :
