Re: Cause of regression 6387


How about `-gdwaf -g1'?

Thanks,

is where high priority regression PR 6387 started, which has this
testcase:
-----------------------
void foo();
void bar() {
struct A { A() { foo(); } } a;
}
-----------------------
and yields the following result with -g1 -fPIC:

bash-2.05$ ../bin/gcc-2001-12-25/bin/c++ -fPIC -g1 -c PR6387.cc
PR6387.cc:5: Internal compiler error in dwarf2out_finish, at
dwarf2out.c:11959

Given the log message, it might well be that the problem originated
earlier and a change in meaning of -g1 now exposed the problem. Maybe the
authors of the patch can comment on how the new meaning of -g1 can be
reproduced with compilers that preceded this patch?
