Recently I've upgraded my suse system to 6.2, and thus upgraded
egcs to 1.1.2 (from egcs 1.1.1), alias gcc-2.91.66 (from 2.91.60).
all my large application (which have been ported to a dozen of different compiler and systems,
and are developed extensively using purify) no more run correctly
and crash with SEGV in unlogical place (eg: in an auto destructor, ...)
without any understandable cause (I've investigated for a long time).
The only explanation for me is that gcc-2.91.66 introduced a bug somewhere ...
I cannot go back because it would mean changing my whole system back
(I've tried it is a mess, it involve glibc-6.1 and everything around).
are there some well known bug in gcc-2.91.66/egcs-1.1.2 that
would explain my problems ?
are there some solution ?
is gcc-2.95.0 a stable release, a solution ?
whar about libstdc++, glibc 6.1 ...
any advice otherwise ?
