It also runs fine on my machine (64bit).

I would assume library incompatibilities after the compiler update. 
Personally, I would run a debugger to see where it hangs. Take a closer 
look at the respective library.

Maybe it is just a question of LD_LIBRARY_PATH, maybe you'll have to 
recompile a library with the new compiler (but beware, other programs 
might depend on the old version!). I guess, you'll have to figure out 
that one by yourself.

Since such problems are sometimes very hard to solve, I tend to 
recompile all dependencies (or in your case update to a system which 
provides the compiler I need).
