When running the testsuite with -fpic/-fPIC, I get an additional failure in the
testsuite with mainline:
FAIL: gcc.c-torture/execute/921215-1.c compilation, -O3 -g
The regression appeared sometime in the last day or so between these postings:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00135.html
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-01/msg00179.html
The compilation dies like this:
921215-1.c:22: internal compiler error: in gen_subprogram_die, at
dwarf2out.c:11207
in the source we have:
11207 gcc_assert (errorcount);
The problem is that errorcount is zero, so the gcc_assert() dies.
I'm about to submit a patch that will fix this.
