One annoying problem with the version of gcc
shipped with Fedora Core 3 for X86_64 is its
propensity to fail when used with longstanding
(and what should be relatively safe" flags
-fschedule-insns
You wind up with error messages something like
<TT>error: unable to find a register to spill in class `AREG' ... ...confused by earlier errors, bailing out</TT>
It's not the more-complex routines that are
causing this compiler failure, either...
It's a pain to have to go back and re-compile
manually fifty routines out of a thousand, or
else forego for a package the substantial optimization
afforded by using the full-strength instruction
