That sounds reasonable; I haven't had any trouble with this on GNU/Linux.
I've also had unconfirmed reports of successful builds on Solaris and
powerpc-apple-darwin1.0.

I also suspect that it might be outputting wrong code for -O2 -- compiling with
gcc 3.0 (IRIX) introduces a bug in the program which isn't there when compiled
with gcc 2.95.2 (IRIX) or with gcc version 3.0.1 20010811 (Debian prerelease)
for i386-linux.  This problem does not occur when compiling without 
optimisation.

Yes, that seems to do it...
