Thanks for your extensive testing ! :-)
Indeed I didn't perform any test with gcc 3.3 but from what you
pointed out it seems that doesn't support the Mesonides' trick

Could you suggest me some paper about compiler bugs, unsupported
features and possible workarounds.

Do you mean the zip files I upload into the vault ?
I always create them under linux, so this sounds really odd to me.
However I can create .tar.gz archive if this can be helpful.
Let me know.
