Bug Description
Binary package hint: gcc-avr
avr-gcc 4.3.0 contains a major bug, whereby any multiplication of a long int by a constant is calculated wrong on many AVR models. This renders version 4.3.0 worse than useless for AVR applications, as very simple code can produce invalid results. (I've just wasted a couple of days debugging that problem.) The bug has been fixed in 4.3.1 onwards, so if possible this should be backported to Intrepid.

Intrepid isn't supported anymore so I close this bug. A newer and more stable version of gcc-avr is available in Lucid Lynx.
Thanks!
