The reason for this is that those are implemented as so-called precompiled contracts and these contracts only really exist after they received the first message (although their contract code is hardcoded). Messages to non-existing contracts are more expensive and thus the execution runs into an Out-of-Gas error. A workaround for this problem is to first send e.g. 1 Wei to each of the contracts before you use them in your actual contracts. This is not an issue on the official or test net. -.. index:: balance, send, transfer, call, callcode, delegatecall +.. index:: balance, send, transfer, call, callcode, delegatecall, staticcall .. _address_related: Address Related @@ -171,6 +171,8 @@ Address Related issue low-level ``CALLCODE`` with the given payload, returns ``false`` on failure, forwards all available gas, adjustable ``
