Sorry being late,
but this is what my older test system says:

CC combine-diff.o
combine-diff.c: In function ‘diff_tree_combined’:
combine-diff.c:1391: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <URL:http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter> for instructions.
make: *** [combine-diff.o] Error 1

Revert "use st_add and st_mult for allocation size computation" didn't fix it.
I haven't digged deeper yet.
