Compiler bug....

[dirk.derycke@icos.be]

I have the following strange error that occurs when compiling WITHOUT
optimizations

const unsigned short shift = 32;
unsigned int res;

res = 1 << shift;

normally this fragment should cause an overflow and res should become zero

but
without optimizations
res = 1;
the 1 bit seems to roll over and enters in the least significant bit

with optimizations
res = 0
(optimizer determines the CORRECT value at compile time)

Compiler version: 2.95.2
Platform : i686-pc-linux-gnu

I added the problem program with its makefile to this mail

regards,
