The following code fragment causes GCC v2.0 to crash:

---
/*
 * A test case to break the GNU C compiler...
 */

struct kaboom
{
    unsigned char	c[16];
};
volatile struct kaboom *k;

void
this_crashes_gnu_c ()
{
     *k;
}

---

This occurs with any of the v2.0 compilers I've tried, both on the Sun
386i running SunOS v4.0 and on the Motorola Delta running SVR3.6.  In
either case, the compiler dies with the following error message:

	gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 6

The above fragment doesn't really seem to mean anything (I caught it as
a result of a coding error on my part), but it does seem that the
compiler shouldn't die like this.
