I've pretty-much always found it with any version of gcc > 2.95 under Debian; however Rhys Hawkins once mentioned that he started seeing it with when he added my alsa patch (and compiled with gcc3). Under AMD64 nothing worked, and compiling qfDES with no compiler flags caused gcc to segfault. There's probably a optimisation bug in gcc3, but if qfDES can trigger it so consistently it implies to me that the code is too fragile, and playing around edges of what is valid C. The whole of my machine is compiled with the same compiler and it's perfectly stable. Cheers, Steve
