>Description:
When I create a local array of a very large size I get an internal compiler error.
Please see the attached file for the preprocessed file:

cc -fsigned-char -g -Wall    t.c   -o t
t.c: In function `main':
t.c:4: size of array `a' is too large
t.c:4: Internal compiler error:
t.c:4: Internal compiler error in `assign_stack_temp_for_type', at function.c:937
Please submit a full bug report.
See <URL: http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/faq.html#bugreport > for instructions.

>How-To-Repeat:
Create a file that looks like the following and attempt to compile it:

#include <limits.h>
int main()
{
    int a[INT_MAX];
    return 0;
}
