Dear GCC folks : I am trying to perform a bootstrap build of GCC 4.2.2 on a Solaris 8 Sparc machine and it fails in a rather noisey fashion. I am using the exact same machine and software config which allowed me to build GCC 4.2.1 thus : http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2007-08/msg00318.html My thought was that I could extract the sources for GCC 4.2.2 on the very same machine and then simply perform the bootstrap in the same way. Not so. :-( Here is the complete log of the terrible event : http://www.blastwave.org/dclarke/gcc-4.2.2/gcc-4.2.2-bootstrap-failure.log Was there some sort of a significant change between GCC 4.2.1 and GCC 4.2.2 which means that the exact same machine and software environment would build GCC 4.2.1 but fail with GCC 4.2.2 ? Or am I missing something obvious ? Dennis Clarke
