internal compiler error - unrecognizable insn

[Michael Hinz]

Just had one of those "pleasant" internal compiler errors, so I thought
I'd share.

The source file in question is part of the current (as of about 15:00 UTC,
october 28th) gnome-utils CVS snapshot. glib, gtk+ and gnome-libs are taken
from the same server at the same time.

About egcs and OS:

The failed command and error message:

The part of source where it fails looks pretty unsuspicious. I'll cite the
whole function in question (line 226 is the last line of this function, the
one with the closing brace):

/* Calculates the minimum width and height of the month item based on the day font size and padding.
 * Assumes that the minimum heading height has already been computed.
 */
static void
check_day_sizes (GnomeMonthItem *mitem)
{
   double m_height;
   double m_width;
   int width;
   int max_width;
   char buf[100];
   int i;

   /* Calculate minimum height */

   m_height = mitem->head_height + 6 * (mitem->day_font->ascent + mitem->day_font->descent + 2 * mitem->day_padding);

   if (mitem->height < m_height)
      mitem->height = m_height;

   /* Calculate minimum width */

   max_width = 0;

   for (i = 1; i < 32; i++) {
      sprintf (buf, "%d", i);
      width = gdk_string_width (mitem->day_font, buf);
      if (max_width < width)
         max_width = width;
   }

   m_width = 7 * (max_width + 2 * mitem->day_padding);

   if (mitem->width < m_width)
      mitem->width = m_width;
}


So. Any ideas?
