In which case the most likely cause is a compiler bug. (I've had occasional problems at different with what seems to be multiple use of the same register, evident either as things like ldr r3, [r3],#3 or once with loading a short int using 2 lrdb instructions both targeted at the same register, all when building perl. Latter problem went away as soon as I used a temporary variable or stuck printf()s in to try to find out why a regression test was failing) Is it possible to arrange for the buildd either to use a different optimisation level, or to temporarily use a new (or older) compiler? Else I'll download the source debs try to recreate the problem at home [and start staring at -O2 output in gdb once again. Not fun, which is why I'm trying to avoid it] Nicholas Clark
