State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: aoliva State-Changed-When: Fri Sep 28 20:36:51 2001 State-Changed-Why: The global register variable is most definitely the culprit. There are certain instructions that really need to use %esi (and most other registers in the register-starved x86 architecture, unfortunately). http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view&pr=4296&database=gcc
