It is probably some bug in your program that is exposed by compiler 
optimizations.  You need to debug your code at the point of the crash.  
Since GCC allows to compile with both -O3 and -g, you can run the 
optimized code under a debugger and see what goes wrong at the locus of 
the crash.

The crash traceback printed when the program crashes should tell you 
where to start debugging, if you run SYMIFY on it.  (If you don't know 
what SYMIFY is, read section 9.2 of the DJGPP FAQ list, which is 
available as v2/faq210b.zip from the same place you get DJGPP.)
