It was decided by the jffs2 maintainer to reject the patch. Its the
compiler that is broken, not JFFS2. Fixing the compiler is the proper
solution.

No, not that patch.
I mean the patch which is attached to my previous mail, which fixes the semaphore-unlocking problem (and which is taken from mtd cvs HEAD). This is unrelated to the arm-gcc problem.
