I'm not sure what's behind this, but I've been plagued off and on with the
same thing on one of my boxes (6x86 P150+). I've replaced the memory and
tried all sorts of settings to no avail. For me, it occurs with any and
all versions of the C compiler and binutils. Fortunately, it's quite rare
(not anywhere near as repeatable as what you describe), and I just live
with it.
