[Bug c/30559] New: compiler loops forever with flag -O3


I just tried to compile Suse Linux package libnasl-2.2.6-40
with the new GNU C compiler version 4.3 snapshot 20070119.

I used compiler flag -O3. The compiler appeared to hang
for more than 30 minutes when compiling source code file regex.c.

I tried compiling the same file with the same compiler and
flag -O2 and the compiler took 5 seconds.

I tried compiling the same file with gcc 4.1.2 and flag -O3
and that compiler took 2.3 seconds.

I checked the memory usage of the 20070119 compiler and
it was about 40Megs on an idle system with 512Meg of RAM 
fitted.

Preprocessed source code attached. Flag -O3 required.
