You couldn't know. It isn't even clear that gcc or glibc is at
fault -- noone so far has compared the actual code being output.

However, it would be great if you could start with an asterisk
compiled with gcc 4.1, then install gcc 4.2 and selective delete
.o-files and compiling until the issue comes back. Once it's known
which file has problems, it will be much easier to find the faulty
code -- whether it's in gcc, glibc or asterisk.

It's a slow process, but these kinds of bugs are rather nasty to find.
