First, you may have a buggy program.  A buggy program can do anything
it wants.  In fact, one of the things it is permitted to do, is to
work correctly.  I suspect you just have a buggy program.  You need to
learn how to debug your code and track down the problems.  That is
beyond the scope of this list.

You may have a compiler with some bugs in it that are adversely
affecting you.  These bugs don't have to be machine independent, they
don't have to be optimization independent.

There could be bugs in the OS software that are causing problems.

Anyway, these are but a few possibilities, many more could come to
mind, but it is pointless for me to speculate.  You need to start by
debugging the problem.
