             Bug #: 50664
           Summary: GDB rebuilt by i686-w64-mingw32-gcc4.6.2's "-Os"
                    crahed when debuging, but "-O2" is OK.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.6.2
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P3
         Component: other
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: xunxun1982@gmail.com


I don't know which section this issue can be reported in.

I rebuilt the latest gcc4.6 branch on Win7 and I found a weird probem.
When I use the editon to build gdb with "-Os", it won't list source code, and
if you input list twice, gdb will crash.

A debugging session is active.

    Inferior 1 [process 2212] will be killed.

Quit anyway? (y or n)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

But if I replace "-Os" with "-O2" to rebuild again, gdb will work ok.

And gcc4.6.1 release haven't the issue.
I don't know why.
So it's gcc's -Os bug?
But I only found the issue when I built gdb, other projects with "-Os" work
well.

gcc-4.6.2-RC-20111019 has not the problem.
May be solved.
