Are you sure you're using FSF GCC? -- Gaby gcc built from last Saturday's post on gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/snapshots I've seen remarks about that not being a reliable source for FSF gcc. If those aren't good to use, why not offer something better? A colleague tried the case with another colleague's build of gcc-4.2 from a few weeks ago. His diagnostics match what I get with g++ -m32.
