While compiling src/invent.c o Nethack3.0, patchlevel 5, I encountered a
gcc-bug. The offending piece of code boils down to the following :
(It is the original gcc-1.36 with the insn-not-recognizable-patches from 
 jonathan@comp.vuw.ac.nz and the recent speedup-and-save-space patches
 from tege@sics.SE)

  these also get the signal :

 	return ((int)c ^ 30  ) > (c ^ 40 );

  these are ok :
 	return (c + 30  ) > (c ^ 40 );
 	return (c ^ 30  ) > (c + 40 );
 	return (c ^ 30  ) + (c ^ 40 );

 	return (c ^ 40 );
 	return (c ^ 30  ) > (c ^ 40 );
