I know.  Debian's fresh releases are always full of really old stuff.
Anyway, 4.1 too:
$ /usr/bin/gcc-4.1  -I../../tpd-include  -E -DKERNEL_26 emlib.c -o emlib.i
<built-in>:0: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <URL:http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html> for instructions.
For Debian GNU/Linux specific bug reporting instructions,
see <URL:file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.1/README.Bugs>.

If it is worth chasing.  It is not worth chasing if someone readily
recognizes the
symptom and says, "Yes, I've fixed something like that."  Since the trivial
trim of the sources yielded something that did not fault, creating something
that still fails will wind up taking serious work.  It would need a reasonable
prospect of being useful before I would afford the time.  Thanks - Bruce
