Interestingly, all three of the above routines compile fine in TME running
SunOS 4.1.1, gcc-3.2.3. Just like a real sun3, it takes a long time, but ends
up compiling and executing fine.
I originally thought that TME was failing with some type of generic extreme
memory consumption problem, but since compiling these three routines only
fails in TME with NetBSD and not SunOS, maybe NetBSD really is hitting a m68k
instruction that is not emulated correctly.
Just as gcc-3.3.3 in NetBSD never hit the "movel sp,-(sp)" problem, but
gcc-3.2.3 in SunOS did, maybe this time NetBSD gcc is executing a broken
instruction that isn't used in SunOS.
