It was recognized by Sun and they have released compiler patches for both x86 and sparc compilers. > I suppose, the explanation is the usual "It's a bug in the compiler, you > either need to install the newest fix package or drop optimization > levels", > that you always get for that kind of compiler bugs... Well, it happens once in a while that compiler bugs are worked around in source code. It can happen if problem code gets identified in short time, like within 1/2 hour, and modification improves readability. But customary answer is indeed "fix compiler or drop optimization level."
