             Bug #: 50739
           Summary: [avr] nameless error with -fmerge-all-constants
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.7.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

         Component: target
        AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org

            Target: avr
             Build: i686-linux-gnu


With the source that will follow, I get the following error message (same
without -da):

$ avr-gcc -fmerge-all-constants -mmcu=atmega88 -S foo.c -da

foo.c:18: confused by earlier errors, bailing out

foo.s is printed but the output stops after printing 
__c.1229:
    .string    "a"

see following attachment.

Trunk versions that show the problem: r179594, r179997.
