compare config.h between ARM optims vs no ARM optims cases and
then grep for the changed #defines in the code and disable them
one by one or via binary search until you found which causes the
problem, once its known which causes the problem that code has to be
debugged

I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your
