gcc 2.4.5 problems

I am trying to compile gcc-2.4.5 on a 3b2/500 system, and when I get to the
  second (and/or third) stage, if I compile with CFLAGS="-O" (optimization),
  then whenever genattr.c is compiled into an executable, it core dumps
  after printing everyting out that it should. (The error message that
  is printed is: 'sh: 6797 EMT trap - core dumped')

  This problem occurs only when I use stage1/xgcc, stage2/xgcc or staged3/xgcc
  and compile it with optimization.

  After looking through the source file, after the last printf() statement
  (which does get printed, BTW), the next line is:
  'exit (ferror (stdout) != 0 ? FATAL_EXIT_CODE : SUCCESS_EXIT_CODE);'
  which is the only place it could core dump.  If I rewrite this line (for
  example, by replacing FATAL_EXIT_CODE with 33 (which is how it's defined in
  config.h) and replacing SUCCESS_EXIT_CODE by 0 (also defined in config.h that
  way)), then the program compiles and runs fine.

  Is this a bug in gcc-2.4.5?  If so, is there a patch, and of not, could
  anyone tell me the newest version of gcc that they have successfully compiled
  on a 3b2?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
