Factor your code so that the part you don't want optimized appears in 
it's own unit (e.g. .o file) and build makefile that turns off 
optimization for that object.

Alternatively, and probably more appropriate, just debug why the 
optimizer is causing problems and fix the bug in your code (or report a 
gcc bug).
