Bug#673441: gcc-4.6: ICE on sparc while building boost1.49

["Steve M. Robbins" <smr@debian.org>]

Package: gcc-4.6
Version: 4.6.3-5
Severity: important

The sparc build of boost 1.49 failed recently with a gcc ICE.  The compiler
output claims the bug is not reproducible (not sure how it would know
that?) and may be a hardware or OS problem.

Could a sparc person please try a build?
