That causes the SSE store instruction to generate a segmentation fault. This behavior is in 3.1.1 (earliest I have) up to the current 3.4 CVS. >How-To-Repeat: $ cat ssebug.c #include main() { static float scale=32768.f; __m128 Scale=_mm_load1_ps(&scale); } $ gcc -o ssebug ssebug.c -msse $ ./ssebug [segfault] >Fix: align the stack variables. Since spilling to the stack in most cases negates the performance gain the programmer hopes for with SSE, I also suggest a compiler warning in this case. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
