 Ah yes, I'd tried -fno-strict-aliasing on 2.95.3, but not on 20011023.
 Thanks.

 Yeah, that works.  The code it produces isn't all that wonderful, though:
 
 	...
         mov     r3, sp
         stmia   r3, {r0-r1}
         ldmia   r3, {r0, r1}
         add     r2, sp, #8
         stmia   r2, {r0, r1}
         mov     r2, #2032
         ldrh    r3, [sp, #14]   @ movhi
 	...
