Well, is it gcc 2.96-81, or is it the code itself? I think that's the
question everybody would like to have answered, but I think SGI's OSS
team is a little pressed for time at the moment.
I got file system corruption with 2.96-81, but it went away with
2.91-66. I can't tell you why exactly though.
