Hi!
I have reported this before:
If big arrays are in use, gcc compiles statically linked executable
(even through dynamic compilation was requested) and resulting
executable coredumps. Pretty nasty error.

In its previous incarnation, bug was hidden by going to new gcc
version... But it looks like it only raised a bar a bit.
To reproduce:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/sf/nltools/slm$ gcc delme.c -o delme
delme.c: In function `main':
delme.c:21: warning: return type of `main' is not `int'
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/sf/nltools/slm$ ldd ./delme
not a dynamic executable
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/sf/nltools/slm$ cat delme.c
#define MAXLEN 20
#define MAXTAG 10
double
#speedup[MAXLEN][MAXLEN][MAXLEN][MAXLEN][MAXTAG][MAXTAG][MAXTAG];
void
init_speedup(void)
{
int i, j, k, l, o, m, n;
for (i=0; i<MAXLEN; i++)
for (j=0; j<MAXLEN; j++)
for (k=0; k<MAXLEN; k++)
for (l=0; l<MAXLEN; l++)
for (o=0; o<MAXTAG; o++)
for (m=0; m<MAXTAG;
m++)
for (n=0;
n<MAXTAG; n++)
speedup[i][j][k][l][o][m][n] = -1.0;
}
void main(void)
{
init_speedup();
}

If you fail to reproduce it (i.e. it generates dynamic executable) try
to make array bigger.
