Buggy -O2

[Juan Pablo Soto]

Dear friends,
is this list the suitable site to report a bug???

we have detected a buggy code generated by egcs-1.1.1 (and egcs-1.0.3)
using g++ with
"-O2 -g". Following it is code from KDE project,
kdebase-1.1/kwm/client.C


493  for (i=0;i<6;i++){
494    buttons[i] = getNewButton( options.buttons[i]);
495    if (getDecoration() == KWM::normalDecoration ) {
496	if (!trans){
497	    if (buttons[i])
498		buttons[i]->show();
499	}
500	else { // transient windows,
501	    if ( i == 0 && buttons[i] == buttonMenu )
502		continue;
503	    if ( i == 3 && options.buttons[3] == CLOSE )
504		continue;
505	    buttons[i]->hide();
506	}
507    }
508    else {
509	if (buttons[i] ){
510	    buttons[i]->hide();
511	}
512    }
513  }


Lines 505 and 510 are confused by egcs. We detected the bug by means of
unexpected null reference at line 510.

We hope above buggy example can be useful to egcs developers.

Best Regards,
