This looks like a kernel bug, although it's hard to tell without more 
information.

If you think it is a gcc bug, we need a self-contained testcase so that we can 
reproduce the problem.

A self-contained testcase usually includes a description of why you think gcc 
is wrong (ie. what the correct behaviour is), which version of gcc you are 
using, the exact commandline used to invoke gcc, and preprocessed source 
files.

Also note that while we will attempt to address problems with the toolchains 
we provide, CodeSourcery has no obligation to provide free support for gcc.
This list is not the correct place for general gcc questions, or for problems 
with toolchains obtained from third parties.
