Oops, right, binutils, not gcc. More like a general design flaw in binutils 
than a bug (Richard Henderson rang a bell there, see 
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2003-04/msg00202.html), but it's good that there's 
at least a promising hack now.

Kris: This is exactly what I found back then, you really might wanna try this 
patch. Sorry for the confusion, trying to get those things right without ever 
having touched an alpha is obviously too hard for me. :)
