Interesting. On a Slackware 7.1 recently upgraded to glibc 2.2
(and where gcc 2.95.2 from ftp.gnu.org was built because 2.2
requires this version) I get:

% gcc -Wall -O2 -o bug bug.c
% ./bug
0x84800000

% egcs-2.91.66 -Wall -O2 -o bug bug.c
% ./bug
0x0

% gcc -Wall -O -o bug bug.c
% ./bug
0x0

% gcc -v
Reading specs from
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-slackware-linux/2.95.2/specs
gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)

% egcs-2.91.66 -v
Reading specs from
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-slackware-linux/egcs-2.91.66/specs
gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release)

Slackware's -current tree was upgraded to glibc 2.2 and gcc
2.95.2, but I built them myself.
