I'd say you're right :) Could you compile with: CFLAGS='-O -pipe' \ ./configure \

        --enable-debug \

... If there are any segfaults, on those testcases, please run gdb as: gdb sapi/cli/php gdb> set args -f foo/bar/failedtest.php gdb> run It would help a great deal, if you're able to get some backtrace info.

Also: gcc reports that "-O2" produces buggy code on this platform. In order to build at all, I have to change "-O2" to "-O" in the Makefile after running configure. (This is no big deal, but it would be nice if the configure process did this for me.)

With the above CFLAGS setting, it's respected. If you set this in your environment via .profile or whichever is applicable for your shell (which is not a bad idea on this platform), it will always override the default of -O2.
