 I'm very skeptical, because the only change between 20021213 and 20021218=
  was:
 
 2002-12-17  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>
 
 =09PR opt/8794
 =09* combine.c (force_to_mode) [MINUS]: Only replace with (not Y) if all
 =09bits in fuller_mask (not just mask) are set in C.
 
 which certainly can't be the culprit (the bug occurs earlier, during RTL=20
 generation).
 
 The ICE is triggered by:
 
 #ifdef ENABLE_CHECKING
   /* Make sure that we've pushed and popped the same number of levels.  *=
 /
   if (!COMPOUND_STMT_NO_SCOPE (t) && n !=3D current_nesting_level ())
     abort ();
 #endif
 
 that is, the parse error is confusing the regular handling of nested scop=
 es.
 
 So I think that the problem has been there for a long time, and that=20
 Wolfgang's 20021213 version was configured with --disable-checking.
 
 --=20
