I've never seen this happen, and can not make it happen now with little
examples. I get two memory locations, just like I should:
% nm a.out | grep tempvar
00020cb4 b _tempvar
00020cb8 b _tempvar
When I run it, the program does the right thing.
What you need to do is to get a small example program which messes up,
post it _exactly_, along with the type of machine, software version
number, etc...
If there is a problem, it is probably in the linker "ld", not in cc, but I
suspect you are overlooking a programming mistake.
