My guess is a problem in the runtime, since I don't see the same failures
on solaris 2.8:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2003-01/msg01199.html

If Kaveh or someone can find out if the SEGV occurs at all, that'll be
another important clue.

(Come to think of it... why do we install a SIGSEGV handler at all on
-fcheck-references targets?  It only seems to complicate debugging in
these situations.)
