If turning off optimization changes the program's behavior, that does
not *necessarily* mean there's an optimizer bug, as you seem to imply.
It could also be that your program does something erroneous
(unpredictable), and it happened to do some damage when optimized, but
it happened to work when not optimized.

If you have a small test case, it might be interesting to see it...
