Re: gdnc segfaulting in sarray.h, internal to gcc-3.2/libobjc/objc

[Dan Hitt]

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the suggestion to use gcc 3.3.

I've recompiled all of my sources using gcc3.3, and i segfault
in the same place (well, the analogous place in the gcc3.3 source tree).

For reference, i'm using version 1.6.0 of gnustep-base on a red hat 7.3
system (and of course gcc 3.3 per your suggestion).

Thanks again for your advice.
