sneaky egcs 1.1/newmat09 problem



I found a problem with the egcs 1.1 C++ compiler when using the newmat09
matrix library (available from  http://webnz.com/robert/index.html ).
[ The new header file for the library has been used ]

Under egcs 1.0.3 the newmat09 library works as expected.

The bug occurs when using the eigenvalue decomposition function of the
form:

 EigenValues(A,D,V);	// A symmetric; V is a matrix, D diagonal

it gives a segmentation fault - i know this sounds rather flakey, but
unfortunately I don't have the time (and the knowledge) to start analyzing
the newmat library.

The bug occurs whether using optimization or not. I've recompiled the
library using these switches:
-O3 -mpentium -archpentium -D_REENTRANT -fschedule-insns2 -fschedule-insns
and without any switches at all, with the bug recurring.

Please contact me if you require more info.

My system is Red Hat 5.1 + patches, on Pentium II 266, kernel 2.0.34.
egcs 1.1 and 1.0.3 were obtained as RPMs from the RedHat contrib site.


PS.  Many thanks for all your work on egcs
