foo.c:
asm (
".globl bar\n\t"
"bar:\n\t"
"movl $5, %eax\n\t"
"ret"
);
main() {
        return bar();
}

$ gcc -g2 foo.c; ./a.out; echo $?
5
$ gcc foo.c -g3; ./a.out; echo $?
Segmentation fault
139

Disassembly of the a.out compiled with -g3 gives:

(gdb) disass main
Dump of assembler code for function main:
0x08048364 <main+0>:    push   %ebp
0x08048365 <main+1>:    mov    %esp,%ebp
0x08048367 <main+3>:    sub    $0x8,%esp
0x0804836a <main+6>:    and    $0xfffffff0,%esp
0x0804836d <main+9>:    mov    $0x0,%eax
0x08048372 <main+14>:   add    $0xf,%eax
0x08048375 <main+17>:   add    $0xf,%eax
0x08048378 <main+20>:   shr    $0x4,%eax
0x0804837b <main+23>:   shl    $0x4,%eax
0x0804837e <main+26>:   sub    %eax,%esp
0x08048380 <main+28>:   call   0x4852
0x08048385 <main+33>:   leave
0x08048386 <main+34>:   ret
End of assembler dump.

Note the call to an invalid location; it is this that causes the segfault.

Seen in the wild in tetex-3.0 (uses asm functions in metafont).

Workaround: don't use -g3.

I will attach gcc -g3 -S foo.c output.
