Here is the exact track of the bug (it is pretty complicated):

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11376

	I figured out an patch but not tested yet wich touch inlinedGetFrameAt() in  imgContainerGIF.ii 
as described in gcc bugzilla, it is (still compiling) hope will post it after it will work.

Of course -O instead -O2 is simplest, debian people used too but to leave -O2 is finer 
at least ...

ppc and sparc are afected using gcc-3.3.
