But this is definitely non-sense. IIRC potentially every library is a
subject to be affected by the compiler's bug. The fact that other libs
don't cause such a destructive behavior (as Qt with kicker) is just a
matter of luck.

Personally I noticed that Konqueror on sparc is also VERY unstable.
Every third site opened by it crashes the Konqueror (or KJS). This is
not reproducable on i386. So, IMHO, this is somehow related to this
bug.

I think that investigate weather each crash is related to compiler's
bug or not is quite expensive an ineffective task. I think that
everything should be recompiled.
