This isn't a problem I typically encounter so I am hoping for some
pointers on the steps to debug.
I'm calling it infinite, but I've always just terminated the build
after a long time of waiting. I don't know what to call this
apparently as I've tried searching the mailing list + bugzilla for
information but nothing comes up related to this type of problem.
I'm using 4.2.1 and have seen this one or twice before on a mingw
build I think, but this is the first time I've encountered it on my
linux build. Only thing I know at the moment is that the hang happens
during the compile step and that I can only get through preprocessing
(-E) for sure.
This only happens when building with an opt build such as -O3.
I've tried working it down to test case that doesn't involve building
the library that this test suite is a part of, but so far no luck -- I
will have to try and work with it as part of the test suite file
itself. I've narrowed it down to a section of the code that is purely
a set of macros that call into each other and contain something like
do { ... } while (0).
I can past the library context-specific code that produces this if it
matters for creating steps to debug (the whole file is ~150 lines when
reduced).
