I am running NetBSD-1.2-release. I have tried to reduce optimization
to -O but no go. The package compiles fine without optimization....

Find below the result from gdb....
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to produce some
more detailed output.

hotdog# gdb /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/alpha-unknown-netbsd1.2A/2.7-95q4/cc1 cc1.core
