According to the bug reports for GCC it was noticed.

The problem is perhaps that few of developers have 586 any more and this problem most likely have 
very low priority now for them. It is actually detection which CPU features area available what is 
broken for 586. It is detecting that CMOV can be used when it is really not supported.

PS. You can of course try my build of GCC-4.7.0 for DJGPP (see http://ap1.pp.fi/djgpp/gcc/4.7.0/), 
but be warned that I do not know whether this problem is fixed neither I have any 586 system for 
testing. Also be warned that this version will perhaps be even more memory starved and slow on 586.
