We have just moved to b19 and our project failed miserably, it compiled but 
did not run. After much poking about in the
assmbler we discovered an odd switch which ended up jumping to part way 
through an instruction. We recoded this as an if then else sequence and all 
was fine. We then looked more deeply and extracted the failing source. We 
also noted that if we compile with -O3 it all works.

Heres the code

typedef unsigned int uint;
typedef unsigned char uchar;

class AClass {
protected:
   uint  ib;
public:
   AClass( void )           { }
   AClass( uint initib )    { ib = initib; }
   operator uint ()         { return ib; }
   uint  getTop()           { return ib >> (16+9); }
   bool hasPropertyX()      { return true; }
   typedef enum
   {
      XYZunk = 0, XYZ1 = 1, XYZ2 = 2, XYZ4 = 3, XYZopDep = 4,
      XYZstDep = 5, XYZhalf = 6, XYZdble = 7, XYZ4to2 = 8, XYZsame = 9
   } XYZType;
   XYZType getXYZType()
   {
      static uchar XYZ[128] =
      {
            XYZunk,  XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZunk,  XYZunk,  XYZunk, 
 XYZunk,
            XYZsame, XYZ2,    XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, 
XYZunk,
            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, 
XYZsame,
            XYZsame, XYZopDep,XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZstDep,XYZsame, XYZunk, 
 XYZunk,
            XYZsame, XYZ1,    XYZ2,    XYZ4,    XYZsame, XYZhalf, XYZsame, 
XYZsame,
            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZ1,    XYZ1,    XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, 
XYZsame,
            XYZsame, XYZ1,    XYZ2,    XYZ4,    XYZ2,    XYZdble, XYZsame, 
XYZsame,
            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, 
XYZsame,
            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame,

            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame,

            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZdble, XYZsame, XYZsame, 
XYZsame,
            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZ4to2, XYZsame, XYZsame, 
XYZhalf,
            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, 
XYZsame,
            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZdble, 
XYZ4to2,
            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZdble, 
XYZdble,
            XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZsame, XYZdble, 
XYZsame,
      };
      return ( XYZType ) ( XYZ[ this->getTop() ] );
   }

   int getNextXYZ( uint startXYZ )
   {
      switch ( getXYZType() )
      {
      case XYZ1:
         return( 1 );
      case XYZ2:
         return( 2 );
      case XYZ4:
         return( 3 );
      case XYZhalf:
         return( startXYZ - 1 );
      case XYZdble:
         return( startXYZ + 1 );
      case XYZ4to2:
         return( startXYZ == 3 ? 2 : startXYZ );
      case XYZsame:
         return( startXYZ );
      case XYZopDep: // MPSR only!
         if ( hasPropertyX() )
         {
            return( 4 );
         }
         // Drop through!!
      case XYZstDep:
      case XYZunk:
      default:
         return( 0 );
      }
   }
};

main()
{
	AClass x( 0x62000000 );
	printf( "Next XYZ for %.8X = %d\n", x, x.getNextXYZ( 2 ) );
}

Hope this is usefull to the maintainers.

We will try this on the egcs compiler when it arrives - hope the problem 
has been fixed.


Thanks for any input
