Sorry, that's a known issue.  Have it still in the latest 4.1.x build
on my unix.  I think the problem is due to the 8-bit nature of the
avr.  I have been getting it for several years, with no bugs traceable
to it, so it appears harmless.  There is no c++ maintainer for avr-g++
currently, so it should persist...

Eric/Joerg/et.al : seeing as I now have a functional freebsd system
and a current build of avr-g++, so I could potentially test & fix,
does anyone have a pointer (no pun intended) to where in the code one
might start looking for that 'bug'?
