Bug#335578: ocamlopt.opt segfaults on Alpha

[Julien Cristau <jcristau@liafa.jussieu.fr>]

Hi,

Starting from ocaml version 3.08.3-8, ocamlopt.opt doesn't work at all
on alpha.  Since 3.08.3-7 built fine, I think this is a toolchain issue.

3.08.3-7 was built with gcc-4.0 4.0.1-4, binutils 2.16.1-2 and
libc6.1-dev 2.3.5-3, while 3.08.3-8 was built with gcc-4.0 4.0.1-6,
binutils 2.16.1cvs20050902-1 and libc6.1-dev 2.3.5-5.
Does anyone know of an alpha-related change in the toolchain between
these versions, which could have caused this?
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get a meaningful backtrace with gdb (I
only know that the segfault occurs at program startup).

Thanks,
Julien Cristau
