No, this is NOT an 'infamous sig 11' type sig 11. This is a gcc
2.7.2p problem, and has been reported by many, many people using
gcc2.7.2p to try to compile floppy.c. The 2 identified workarounds
are:
1) compile floppy.c by hand, substituting -O for -O2 in the compile
line
OR
2) use vanilla gcc 2.7.2 instaed of 2.7.2p
