jejb@ion> hppa64-linux-gnu-gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: hppa64-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../src/configure --enable-languages=c --prefix=/usr

Thread model: single
gcc version 4.2.4 (Debian 4.2.4-6)

the problem is definitely the depca_irq[i] in the loop ... replace that
with a constant and the error goes away.
