[Bug c/16566] New: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault when compiling a C file.

["ppelissi at caramail dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

I have had this bug with differents GCC releases:

Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/3.3.4/specs
Configured with: ../src/configure -v
--enable-languages=c,c++,java,f77,pascal,objc,ada,treelang --prefix=/usr
--mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info
--with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/3.3 --enable-shared --with-system-zlib
--enable-nls --without-included-gettext --enable-__cxa_atexit
--enable-clocale=gnu --enable-debug --enable-java-gc=boehm
--enable-java-awt=xlib --enable-objc-gc i486-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.3.4 (Debian)

Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.3/specs
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
--infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix
--disable-checking --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-languages=c
--disable-libgcj --host=i386-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.2.3 20030422 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-6)

Reading specs from /global/morpork/gcc-3.4/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.1/specs
Configured with: ./configure --prefix=/global/morpork/gcc-3.4
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.4.1

It seems to work fine with:
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.3.2/specs
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
--infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix
--disable-checking --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --host=i386-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.3.2 20031022 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.2-1)

Here are the ouput with GCC 3.4.1:

morpork may 58 % /global/morpork/gcc-3.4/bin/gcc -I.

This has been tested on different systems too (P3, P4, athlon and amd64).
