Comment(by cpinkham):

 This ticket has been closed for a while, but as indicated it can still
 affect people with older (aka buggy) compilers.  I've attached a
 3634_workaround_v2.diff file that works around the issue a different way
 by moving the offending variable off the stack and into a struct that is
 malloc-ed.  This fixes the issue on my ancient gcc v3.2.2 dev system.  I'm
 not advocating putting this hack into SVN, I just wanted to document it in
 case others ran into the same issue.
