I got the two post of GCC/GAS (+GDB on the last one) and it works great! I would also thank the Author of the port for his wonderful work. Unfortunately I run into a problem compiling my 7000 lines program using -O option. Both posting of GCC generated code which crash the program with "protection violation" error, always exactly in same place. Without optimization, the programs works fine. Although I had no time to deeply indagate on the problem, it seems that some routine is overwriting a couple of location in which are saved the values of the EBX register. When EBX is restored and used again, the program crashes. I wonder if somebody already run in any problem using -O option. Any suggestion will be appreciated.
