Can you just make that minimal change, and diff the objdump of the two .o's?
It would be worth a bug-report against the toolchain if different code was
being generated. If objdump spews huge numbers of diffs (due to one address
changing and pushing everything else out of kilter), then feel free to
forward both .o's or both objdumps to me, and I can run a script over them,
which knows to ignore unimportant address changes. 

Praying that this mail is readable to you, as it's not readable as I write
it,
Phil
