 Maybe also related to:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32642
 i.e. "=m" works for variables/structures in memory (i.e. declared global) but not for
variables/structures in the stack.
 The only way around I found it is using the "=X" modifier, but that has not been
seen as a good solution - still works for my sourceforge project.
