[Bug c/39741] New: [BUG or NOT?] Segmentation fault on valid code

["t dot artem at mailcity dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Compile the following code without any optimizations:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
        char a[9000000];
        printf("gcc is wonderful\n");
}

like gcc test.c -o test.o

./test
Segmentation fault

Is it a bug? Can anyone give an insight why such a code segfaults?
