Well it definately looks like removing that variable had some code changes.
It'll take some time to match it up to source, but Most interesting I think is
the variance in putprops around address f34.  Looks like its doing some string
maniuplation in a reversed order, using a huge offset.  Might be worthwhile to
check to see if theres any string overruns in this code.
Yeah I still suspect it's just a bug in the code that's being exposed
now.
Hi,

The same code works with gcc-3.4.
Mohan, can you try running it under valgrind?
Still I am not able to use valgrind to debug kexec-tools
