Hi,

FYI, with gcc trunk on x86_64 Linux, I ran into PR64042: 'FAIL: 
boehm-gc.c/gctest.c -O2 execution test'. ( 
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64042 )

The testcase gctest fails spuriously, a couple of times per 1000 runs.

The failure has been reproduced by others, also on Darwin.

Any information on this is appreciated.

Thanks,
- Tom
