That's interesting. I just saw an odd regression in the httpd server after updating from F13 to F14. It affects deflate. The F13 httpd server appears to be based on the same upstream version, so it seemed odd. I'm adding a pointer to the gcc issue from my bug report. Do you know when the gcc bug was introduced? -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
