I have seen this as well. And I just now successfully reproduced the
problem on Linux with gcc 2.95.3 (Thom tells me he's on linux with gcc
2.95.4 debian prerelease). I tried it again with gcc 3.0.4 and it works
fine. The trouble is this structure in stdlib.h:
struct drand48_data
{
unsigned short int __x[3];
unsigned short int __old_x[3];
unsigned short int __c;
unsigned short int __init;
unsigned long long int __a;
};
It's the __init line that's getting fried. It gets replaced with this by
cpp:
unsigned short int __attribute__ ((__section__ (".text.init"))) ;
This is the same thing I saw on apr's testatomic. In that case I was
feeling lazy so I just changed the order of some includes and it worked.
But that's not really possible in this case. Justin's calling it a gcc
bug, which I suppose it is... but there _must_ be some workaround. I'll
try to find out what that is.
