This is a known propolice bug for which we need to look upstream for a fix.

does this still happen?

closing:
no feedback from submitter + no new upstream patches for propolice

Id like to open this bug again because I get the same thing but on
wip/powedns-recursor.

c++ -O -pipe -I/usr/pkg/include -I/usr/include -Wall -O3

fixed

This is a problem with propolice, an add-on to gcc. Whatever this problem
is, it's not going to be fixed in the 3.4.x gcc stream. The patches I sent
you disable propolice while compiling powerdns-recursor.

I'm hoping that the propolice support in gcc-4.1 will not have this problem,
but more investigation is warranted.

I spoke to soon. Thanks to corecode for tracking down a fix for this
problem.

Another propolice issue?  I'm about ready to huck that thing out 
    the window.

As every new technology, it needs some time to evolve. Nevertheless, it is an important tool to mitigate the effects stack overflow attacks can produce. Besides, this was no code generation error, but a simple abort() in the compiler sources to handle unforseen circumstances. Gcc is full of those, as is our kernel. It is just not easy to make such a big project completely bug-free.
