Synopsis
	gcc reports syntax errors before doing a segmentation fault.

Severity
	serious

Priority
	low

Category
	c

Class
	sw-bug

Release
	# gcc -v
	Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/specs
	gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.0)
	#

Environment
	Celeron 450MHz, i810e, and
      Red Hat Linux 7.0 complete install.
	No changes made to install, except standard
	administrative things.

Description
	gcc reports syntax errors before doing a segmentation fault
	in response to the following command:

cc -O2 -g -DDEBUG -fno-strength-reduce   -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes
-I../include -I/usr/src/linux-2.2.16-22/include -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE
-DEXPORT_SYMTAB -DBT1003  -c -o btp_open.o btp_open.c

After pasting this command into an emacs inferior shell and pressing CR,
the following output is generated (segmentation fault at the end).  The
inferior shell obscures the original command line, replicating parts of
the command followed by spaces and ^H characters.  A simple xterm shell
given the same command line (I typed in in character by character) generates
the same gcc output without these annoying changes to the command line.
Emacs must be making these annoying changes to the inferior shell buffer
AFTER the command has been sent to the inferior shell for processing.

How-To-Repeat
	The option -save-temps was added to the above mentioned
      command line giving the command line below and the attached
      bzip2 compressed btp_open.i file which should encapsulate
	all the header files and c source used to generate the
	segmentation fault.  The attached file is MIME encoded.

cc -save-temps -O2 -g -DDEBUG -fno-strength-reduce   -Wall
-Wstrict-prototypes -I../include -I/usr/src/linux-2.2.16-22/include
-D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -DBT1003  -c -o btp_open.o btp_open.c


Fix
	It appears that gcc must be modified to correct this problem,
	given that the source code does not change.

	Removal of the "#define __ASM_SPINLOCK_H" statement in btdd.h
	allows successful compilation with four redefinition warnings:
