Turning off optimization got rid of the test_types and test_long failures.
The test_exceptins failure remains. Here's a diff:

I'm not sure what that means, but it seems consistent. ;-)
As for the age of my gcc, I think I'm reasonably current (only a bit over a
year old):
% gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/pgcc-2.91.66/specs
gcc version pgcc-2.91.66 19990314 (egcs-1.1.2 release)
I will try downloading a newer RPM.
