>Description:
try compiling the following function with the following options to gcc 3.2.2 "-Os -mthumb -c -o dave.o dave.c"

static int dave(const char *s) {
  unsigned long matchmap[8];
  return (int)matchmap[(unsigned char)*s++/32]; }

it produces a load register function that uses the stack pointer (i.e. a register above r7, which is invalid in thumb mode)
>How-To-Repeat:
try compiling the above function
>Fix:
Take off -Os optimization
