Red Hat Linux 7.1 running on a Pentium 120.
>Description:
When the lcmdln.c module is compiled with -O3 optimization, the executable (dblibr) fails with a segmentation violation when it is run.  However, when lcmdln.c is compiled with
-O3 in addition to -fschedule-insns explicitly specified, the excutable runs without the segmentation violation. Also, it executes without error if lcmdln.c is only compiled with -O1 optimization.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ gcc -O3 -finline-functions -funroll-loops
-fomit-frame-pointer -fexpensive-optimizations
-fschedule-insns2 -fstrength-reduce -fno-strict-aliasing
-trigraphs -march=pentium -fPIC -o lcmdln.o -c lcmdln.c
$ gcc -o dblibr calloc.o lcreat.o lmain.o lmisc.o lcmdln.o lerrint.o nordisam.a duisam.a dutil.a stblib.a -lbsd -lm
$ dblibr -c bldut.olb bldut1.dbo
>Fix:
Add -fschedule-insns to compiler options when building lcmdln.c module OR change -O3 compiler option to -O1.
