gcc 4.2.4 generates an internal compiler issue when buidling symmetrica on AIX 5.3

[drkirkby]

This would not appear to be a Sage problem as such, but rather of gcc.

Hardware and software

• IBM  RS/6000 7025 F50
• 4 x 332 MHz 32-bit PowerPC CPUs
• 3 GB RAM
• A fairly wide mixture of disks sizes (3 x 9 GB, 1 x 18 GB, 2 x 36 GB and 1 x 73 GB)
• DDS-4 tape drive
• AIX 5.3 (A POSIX certified operating system)
• gcc 4.2.4 downloaded from  pware
• sage-4.6.alpha1

The problem

gcc -c -O1 -fPIC -g -DFAST -DALLTRUE zykelind.c
gcc -c -O1 -fPIC -g -DFAST -DALLTRUE zyk.c
: In function 'mult_hashtable_hashtable_faktor':
:596: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault
