[Bug c/42960] New: segfault internal compiler error when trying to compile latest linux kernel

[rvoicilas at gmail dot com]

I am having a hard time compiling the latest stable linux kernel on Fedora 12,
gcc 4.4.2

I get random `internal compiler error` like the one bellow (in different
sections of the kernel code):

/home/raduv/work/linux-2.6.32.7/drivers/hid/hid-apple.c:274: internal compiler
error: in set_lattice_value, at tree-ssa-ccp.c:471
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla> for instructions.
The bug is not reproducible, so it is likely a hardware or OS problem.
make[3]: *** [drivers/hid/hid-apple.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [drivers/hid] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers] Error 2
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2

I already did the memory test and my memories are just fine.
And I have filled a fedora bug as well, but I hoped that I get more ideas here.
