I think not. I have it directly from people within Apple that the
decision was made not to fix it.

This problems has been in all Apple 3.x compilers. For all I know, it is
in the Apple/Next 2.x versions as well. A diff on the two versions of
objc-act.c shows over 153 differences many of them substantial chunks of
code. Most of the ones I have looked at involve Apple local code.

Thanks for the thought but it does not seem to work. The option is not
documented for either compiler. All the -d options seem to be focused on
debugging the compilation logic. There is no mention of crashes.
