This is caused by a bug in GCC. The debug information claims the
variables are at 0(%ecx) and 4(%ecx) due to the stack realignment code
added to the beginning of main (not added to any other functions, just
main).
As for the failure, I do not get an internal error on either gdb 6.5 or
gdb from CVS. Please try building CVS. I know that the code where you
are encountering an assertion was recently improved.
