I don't recall such a problem with 1.26 through 1.28, but there were
several problems with 1.29.  Some of these were fixed in 1.30, and
I've recently discovered what I think is the "real" problem hiding
behind much of the lossage on Sun-2s: gnulib routines stepping on
registers that GCC thinks are preserved.  I've sent a message to RMS
describing the problem in more detail.
