Beware - I don't think you can build the file and work out what went
wrong in this manner.  Compilers like to change their register
allocation for even the slightest difference of compiler options
and preceding _unrelated_ code.

Unless we have the Code: line we don't know what the code being executed
was.  It's important that folk always report the entire oops dump, not
extracts from it that they _think_ may be relevant.
