Earlier this week, I said on this list that some GCC optimizations may
produce incorrect code (-funroll-loops and -mregparm specifically). I've now
put my collection of example programs and some fixes on

http://www-users.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/~crux/gbc.tar.gz

I don't say that you should apply any of the fixes contained in this archive
to your GCC, since I made some of them up myself and can't guarantee that I
understood everything correctly. But you should probably know about the bugs.
Some of the fixes are taken from the pentium-gcc snapshots.

The bug-gcc list already knows about the bugs, so there's no need to bother
them again. I hope that these problems will be fixed in 2.8.0.
