Analyzing the code produced by gcc under Linux I found this instruction:

  call 0x00000000

The program is a trivial test (just like the Hello World)
statically linked against glibc-2.3.2. The gcc version is
3.4.0 on 2.4.25 kernel (Slackware).

Anyone can explain this?
What is located at this address?

Thanks in advance.
