egcs-19990314 miscompiles linux kernel on i586, SPARC

[Horst von Brand <vonbrand at sleipnir dot valparaiso dot cl>]

On i586 I'm running linux-2.2.3-ac2. With egcs-19990314 the kernel hangs on
boot after "Ok, now booting the kernel" (this is very early). The culprit
is the file linux/arch/i386/kernel/time.c: If that one is compiled with
egcs-1.1.2, the kernel boots (and panics somewhat later, not being able to
get the keyboard and IDE disks). On SPARC, the CVS snapshot kernel from
19990316 doesn't do networking: "ping localhost" gets no answer (this is
the same symptom two or three earlier egcs snapshots have been giving with
i586 before).

Sorry about the vague bug report, I'll try to narrow down the other
problems.

I'm attaching the preprocessed time.c file, for what use it might be.

Gzipped preprocessor output for time.c
