 To be honest i don't know. I'm not on any postgresql mailing lists (my friend
is and he forwarded me posting from one of them; here is excerpt from the
posting:

[...]
We have updated template/linux_ppc with:

        CFLAGS:-O0 -mieee # optimization -O2 removed because of egcs problem

We understand the cause.  It is our bug, not egcs.  egcs is just better
at optimization on that platform than most.

==================================================== 

 So they turned off optimisation globally, maybe turning ot of for destroydb
would suffice?
