Hello and thank you for your reply,

but I still have the same error with gcc 3.4x series,
unpacked form fresh source code did not use the "old" one:

povms.cpp: In function `int POVMSUtil_TempAlloc(void**, int)':
povms.cpp:3830: error: unerkennbares insn:
(insn:HI 82 81 64 2 0x2a9682e780 (set (reg:SI 58)
        (plus:SI (mult:SI (reg:SI 58)
                (const_int 2 [0x2]))
            (const_int -2 [0xfffffffffffffffe]))) -1 (insn_list 81 (nil))
    (nil))
povms.cpp:3830: internal compiler error: in extract_insn, at recog.c:2175

Is it possible to send me your .deb package?
