Comment 2 for bug 1317976

Thanks for your good patch. We've applied it. As for the rest, I am able to reproduce a similar problem using Mac OS X and a MacPorts prerelease version of gcc 4.9. However, the core dump it produces isn't useful: gdb complains that it can't unwind the stack past a certain point. It doesn't actually matter whether any -O option is given: it fails regardless.

I also tried gcc 4.8 and it runs fine under Linux (Ubuntu), but also fails on Mac. Ubuntu currently doesn't have a gcc 4.9 available. We could try compiling it from source, but that will take some effort.
