Yes. That's exactly what it is.

I've just built RC4 on Fedora Core release 3 (Heidelberg) using gcc 4.0.0
and everthing is fine, so it must be a MAC thing.  I don't see any mention
of Mac in the gcc4 release notes.  It would be interesting to download the 
gcc test suite and see how it goes with that.

See what happens compiling a snippet like

int
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        static const double foo[1] = 
        {
30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 *
30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 *
30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 ;
        }
        printf("%g\n",foo[0]);
}
