Subject: GCC and 64bit Integers

I would be grateful if any Linux users could shed any light on the following:

Having just upgraded from SuSe 6.2 to Mandrake 7.0 my chess program compiles but
does not correctly update the 64bit hash codes (using xor) during the search.
This is confirmed by a debug function which compares the incrementally updated
value with that calculated from scratch.

Mandrake gcc, version 2.95.2   19991024  seems to cause the problem.

After forcing version 2.91.66  19990314 to install in Mandrake from an old
RedHat 6.0 RPM, everything is back to normal.
