I can confirm the Bug. Following the discussion in http://forum.canardpc.com/threads/83443-Memtest86-V5.01-crashes-with-gcc-4.7.2-or-later reducing the optimization from -O1 to -O0 and a small patch to the file io.h make memtest86 work again.
I suggest to apply the patch as a workaround until the gcc 4.9 is fixed. The patch is attached. Jose Calhariz -- -- Compositores são lembrados pela posteridade, enquanto homens de negócios são esquecidos --Gordon Getty, bilionário que res
