No, but I haven't come around to look at it. As your mail above is not
giving any useful information and requires to fire up a browser it got on
the back burner.

That bugzilla entry does not tell anything about the compiler involved, the
binutils version and the .config file. I'm really bad at guesswork and my
crystal ball got lost years ago :)

Care to give that information here by mail?

Thanks,
