Looks like,
I also saw some problems with highly optimizing pgcc-2.90.27. 
No problems with compiling the kernel but I have some finite element programs
that run without any fault on different architectures rs/6000, irix, linux ...
the only machine causing some trouble was mine with the above compiler.
I switched back to gcc 2.7.2.1 and the numerical (??) faults disappeared.
