My original comment was directed at how *extremely difficult*
it is to read your
bug report because of the poorly formatted narrative.  Long lines get wrapped
in bugzilla,
which means that the large comment in the posted code is broken
into different lines that
are no longer comments.  So one cannot simply cut-n-paste the original
code into
a program that one can easily compile to demonstrate the problem.  Oh, and
yes, you 
should have included the original simple program
because that program 
is a good candidate for the dejagnu testsuite; whereas the large code
may be
more difficult to add the dg directives and possibly a final scan
pass
of an intermediate file.

For the sarcasm impaired, the above was purposely written
with poor line breaks to hopefully demonstrate the problem.
