Hello,

I'm upgrading my application from djgpp v1 to djgpp v2 and am seeing a seg
fault in the debug build when the application tries to access (read or
write) control registers (specifically CR4).  The inline assembly I am using
is:

   // Enable SSE instructions via OSFXSR (bit 9 of CR4).
   __asm__ __volatile__
   (
      "
         movl %%cr4, %%eax
         orl  $0x00000200, %%eax
         movl %%eax, %%cr4
      "
      :  /* output */
      :  /* input */
      :  /* modified */
      "%eax"
   );

The seg fault always occurs on "movl %%cr4, %%eax".  The exact same code
executes without the seg fault in a release build ("-O2").  The relevant
source file is compiled with "-ggdb -O0", however due to the size of the
executable I have stripped the debug symbols using "strip -g".  All
libraries are statically linked.

Are there any known issues/changes to djgpp that would cause this?

I searched both google and mailing list archives and wasn't able to find any
reference to this issue.

Thanks

Lael
