Hi,

Thanks for the answer, yes the compiler is that old too.
In our company we have to support very old operating systems, the reason why we compile on that OS.

I made some research to found what is the minimum linux kernel, libc, requirements without any success on postgresql.org 
I found a general info on https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/supported-platforms.html which says "PostgreSQL can be expected to work on these operating systems: Linux (all recent distributions)" without any more details.

Regards

So I suppose your compiler is also a dozen years old?

I don't see any good reason to think this isn't a compiler bug.
If you can't upgrade to a newer compiler version, backing off the
default optimization level is probably your best option.  But we
don't test or support operating systems that old.
