I just compiled using the new sun optimizing compiler - cc -O3 - on a
sun-4/260.  It seems pretty fast.  I had the same gcc problem under
SunOS 4.0.1 and gcc 1.33.  I recompiled the routines that failed with
the signal 11 using the Sun C compiler with opt -O3 - everything seems
to be working OK so far.
