Do you actually understand how optimization works? The bigger the level,
the more unsafe code you get, like you just got segfaults. Depending on
the program, one will take some max. level of optimization, but any
higher and it will break, like yours did. Note how many more warnings
you get on compilation as you get higher in optimization level.
You could blame GCC, because optimization is a feature of GCC, but I'd still
keep calm and just compile with -O2, which is basically a standard these days.
