"Internal compiler error: Killed (program cc1plus)" almost always indicates that the compiler-proper ran the computer out of memory and triggered the OOM killer. Perhaps you should file a bug on GCC asking for the driver to mention this possibility when it detects that the compiler-proper has received a SIGKILL. Perhaps you should also file a bug on libtool asking for it to suppress compiler output with -w instead of redirecting it to /dev/null (at least, when it knows it's driving GCC). In the alternative, perhaps you should develop some Automake extensions that would *finally* allow us to take libtool out back and shoot it. zw _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
