Thank you.

Debian stable,   ia32, gcc 4.2.4-6:    BUG
Debian stable,   ia32, gcc 4.3.2-1.1:  no bug (default)

Debian unstable, ia32, gcc 4.2.4-6:    BUG
Debian unstable, ia32, gcc 4.3.3-14:   no bug (default)

Someone else already tested gcc 4.4.0, as no bug.

I will file bugs against Debian gcc-4.2...
