Dear Bug Gcc,

I doubt that anyone can help with this, but I'm sending it along just in case.

Using GCC 1.34 on a sun4 running sys43.2, I am trying to run a very large
program compiled -O -traditional. Within that program, varargs fails
miserably. Every small test case I create, no matter how closely related
to the failing code in the real program, works fine.

The failure mode is that the callee see trash for some or all of the arguments.
All of this code works fine with the sun compiler.

yours in perplexity,
  benson
