One more thing, we now produce variable tracking which I hear don't get along well with gdb or readelf 
so I assume -fno-var-tracking will get rid of the seg fault but at that point, the seg fault becomes a 
gdb bug and not a gcc one, I am assuming that gcc is outputting correct dwarf-2 (which it is known to 
as far as I know).

If gdb cannot really handle var-tracking, we can disable it for 4.0 since it is a new feature but it was an 
important one which was did not make into 3.4.0 because it got reviewed too late.
