Does anyone have an idea how this can be solved? If -O0 works and -O2 doesn't, first narrow it down using a binary search between -O0 and -O2 compiled objects to at least a single compilation unit, then you could use __attribute__((optimize (0))) (resp. __attribute__((optimize (2))) ) and/or -fno-inline to narrow it even further, read the problematic code, see if there aren't any e.g. aliasing warnings (-O2 enables -fstrict-aliasing), if you don't spot a bug in the gforth code after this and still suspect the compiler, turn that into self-contained minimal testcase (for the problematic routine add main that calls it with the right arguments, make the problematic routine __attribute__((noinline, noclone)) and stub out anything it calls, then file a gcc bugreport?
