	I am afraid your line 631 has nothing in common with mine..
	A context diff would be more usefull.

	Only encounter I have had with that problem was quickly cured
	by switching back to gcc 2.7.2, and since then I haven't had
	courage to try it again -- I don't have any idle Solaris SPARC
	machines where to try it...

	I think it relates to optimization at SPARCs (or the particular
	model of SPARC we have), and compiling without "-O" might produce
	working binary.  Could you care to try ?

	Anyway, I use gcc-2.7.2, or egcs-1.1.2, or some vendor specific
	compiler -- depending the platform...

	Damn...  Yeah...
	(I have to pull back a release I made a moment ago to inject this
	 fix in..)
