See the long thread I started at
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-09/msg00043.html
According to honza some inlining changes have broken gfortran
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-09/msg00044.html
such that the overflowing of the index i is now detected
and disallowed. I haven't tried to verify nor find the
exact commit that broke gfortran. One can supposely add
-fno-strict-overflow, but I think that this is bogus and
whatever commit is causing the regression should be
reverted.
