Hi,

I can confirm this now. I've added -mno-omit-leaf-frame-pointer to the
CFLAGS of loader/Makefile and the binary compiled by gcc-3.2-0.2mdk
was working fine.

It didn't hurt with 2.96 either, but it was also working before
without the option. I haven't tried it with 3.0.4, but I guess the above
option can be included now without a gcc version check.

I also haven't tried it with gcc-3.2-0.3mdk that contains lots of
fixes and incompatible ABI changes, but I'll keep you informed.
