This defect was discovered in the gcc compiler extracted from:

I traced a failure in some code I was trying to run to defective code
produced by gcc (from the 1.0-pre-release NetBSD) for a shared library I also
built.  The attached test program demonstrates the defect.  I was wondering
if any of the newer versions of gcc have this defect fixed?  Otherwise, as a
workaround don't use -O[12] -fpic with gcc.  Compile with the -S option to
look at gcc-tst.s and you'll see register a5 is associated with two
parameters, i.e. the value of one overwrites the other.
