The same thing happened to me.  What I finally found out is that there
is some bug which is only triggered by not using the "-g" flag.  When
I tried compiling everything with "-g", everything worked as it is
supposed to.  The only thing is that the files are much larger because
of all of the additional symbol information that is kept when using
the "-g" flag.
