Given there's no asm in the code, I'm assuming it's a compiler bug...
Sorry, I don't have time to narrow it down any further than this, but
it should be easy to reproduce, source is libcap in potato.
(Architecture is i386)

Sorry for the delay on this, but I'm closing this bug since libcap seems
to compile fine on Alpha now.  For awhile, there were problems with the
kernel headers and also with egcs (at the time) which have been resolved,
but which might have caused the problems that you described.

Tested against: libc6.1-dev 2.1.3-7
