When running the GCC testsuite on i686-pc-linux-gnu using -fpic or -fPIC, I get additional failures with 3.3, 3.4 and mainline:
FAIL: g++.old-deja/g++.pt/asm1.C (test for excess errors) FAIL: g++.old-deja/g++.pt/asm2.C (test for excess errors) as shown here: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00029.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00085.html http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00084.html Both of these tests fail like this: g++.old-deja/g++.pt/asm1.C:6: error: can't find a register in class `BREG' while reloading `asm' Is there something to fix in the compiler, the testcase, or should the test be bypassed when using -fpic/-fPIC ? -- Summary: ICE in g++.old-deja/g++.pt/asm1.C and asm2.C with - fpic/-fPIC Product: gcc Version: 3.3.6 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: inline-asm AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: ghazi at gcc dot gnu dot org CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org GCC build triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC host triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC target triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19226
