Subject: Broken with gcc 3.3 and optimization flag
[text/plain 294b]

With gcc 3.3 and optimization flag (-O), 'make test' hangs forever...

Tested on :
* Solaris 5.7, 5.8, 5.9 with gcc 3.3
* i386-freebsd 5.2.1 with cc 3.3.3

Adding flag :

'OPTIMIZE' => '-O0',

in "Makefile.PL" solves the problem.

Maybe an "optimization bug" in gcc 3.3.3 ???

For what it's worth, a few more data points:
I've also seen the same "make test" hang on the following OS/compiler
combinations.

AIX 5.1, cc (C for AIX Compiler, Version 6)
Linux 2.4.20-19.9smp (RedHat 9), gcc 3.2.2

Unfortunately OPTIMIZE=-O0 or -g is not helping either.

Meanwhile the following works with no problem, default -O and all:
Solaris 5.8, gcc 2.95.3
Solaris 5.9, gcc 2.95.3
Solaris 5.9, gcc 3.3.2

Maybe this is an OS/library issue related to signal handling?
