Actually, upon lookling at your code on launchpad, I suspect you are
falling victim to improper aliasing. You should refer to the ISO
standard for more information on the rules for aliasing and compiler
optimization.

If the code works as expected without Optimzation, I'd suspect your
code before I'd suspect GCC...
