OK, the wrong solution. The wierd thing is that Hurd runs well with this
change. I had spotted the hurd_init. I suppose that C library is being
initialised since ext2fs.static does not fail.
I thought perhaps that it was to do with aliasing, gcc 2-95 has changes in
strategy.
Have you any suggestions as to how to diagnose the reason for this fault?
