Well, after a few restarts, here is my output. I did a fresh pull

Alright, Fred, definitely something strange going on here. My only guess is that for some reason on your architecture/OS/whatever, something is being handled incorrectly and the buffers a, b, and c are not getting generated correctly, maybe something like it's not doubling the number of items for the complex data type (before this function test, there are 16ic, or complex shorts, being tested, but this is the first complex float test).
It's hard to tell if it's something about it being an AMD chip, 32-bit, Slackware version, gcc version, etc. And I don't have an AMD chip to test on, but I could load up a 32-bit Slackware VM at least.
How much work are you willing to put into this to help us nail this down?
If you can follow through the volk_profile test code, we can start outputting more debug info. To start with, I'd suggest going into volk/apps/volk_profile.cc and commenting out line 38, rebuild the application, and run this new volk_profile to see if it fails on any other kernels.
Thanks,
Tom
