------- Comment #17 from jvdelisle at gcc dot gnu dot org 2009-06-10 03:11 ------- I was able to do a regression hunt. Going to r145209 just before the big I/O patch eliminates the error. I then moved forward to r145636 and confirmed the breakage.
I then manually removed the use of the format caching in io/format.c and confirmed that the problem goes away. I suggest that I manually revert this portion of the IO patches from 4.4 if we do not fix it very soon. I plan to get ready for this partial revert on 4.4. Then I will proceed to crack the problem on trunk. If we can not fix in time for 4.4.1 I will do the revert. Janne or Tobias, if you prefer I revert now, just let me know. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40330
