Test name: Test::testAutoFill assertion failed

[Alex McMurchy]

Hi All

Some more information on this problem.

It occurs on Slackware 14.1 and Current - the compiler is gcc versions 
4.82 and 4.93 respectively.

It does NOT occur in Lubuntu 14:04- the compiler is gcc version 4.84


The results of a bisect are -

I've had a look at the contents of the commit and it does look as though 
it touches the area that's causing me problems. The commit does look 
fairly generic so why one distro should fail and another pass does look 
a bit bizarre.

I suppose the next stage is to pull out gdb from the toolkit and try and 
ascertain where the paths of Lubuntu and Slackware diverge.

Or, has anyone got any other suggestions on how to tackle this problem?

I've not raised a bug report yet.
