Yes this is a known bug in the 2.7.2.2+myc1 version of the compiler (it 
should be fixed in the egcs build, but there are other problems with 
that).  There is a fix, but it is to the machine-independent part of the 
compiler.

Todd, are you accepting patches to the MI part of the old compiler?

PS. Actually, if you are running on a StrongARM, I don't think it matters. 
 A couple of test's I have just done seem to suggest that there is no 
corruption as happens on ARM2 through ARM7.
