Thanks for the bug report.  What version of gcc do you have?  This
looks like a bug that I have seen on the Alpha (see the MACHINES file)
with gcc-2.95/2.96.  I came to the conclusion that it was a compiler
optimisation problem in that case -- for example the same code worked
fine without optimisation.
