Bug Description

1) $ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release: 14.04

2) $ sudo apt-cache policy gcc-4.8
gcc-4.8:
  Installed: 4.8.2-19ubuntu1
  Candidate: 4.8.2-19ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 4.8.2-19ubuntu1 0
        500 http://fi.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) I tried to compile following code (attached the *c *.i and *.s files):
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

#define SIZEOF_BUFFER 128

int main()
{
        static char traceBuffer[SIZEOF_BUFFER];
 memcpy((char *)0x40024000, traceBuffer, sizeof(traceBuffer));
 return 0;
}

Expected to compile and produce memcpy.out executable.

4) Actual result:

$ gcc memcpy_test.c -g -m32 -Wall -Wextra -Wno-format -o memcpy.out --save-temps
memcpy_test.c: In function ‘main’:
memcpy_test.c:10:8: internal compiler error: in ix86_copy_addr_to_reg, at config/i386/i386.c:21718
  memcpy((char *)0x40024000, traceBuffer, sizeof(traceBuffer));

Hello Pekka, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gcc-4.8 into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-4.8/4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
