Thanks for the reply. I'm building 4.2.3 which was release on 2/1/08, 2 weeks ago. Are you saying there a more recent version that has that in it? I'll send another email without the -k so it bombs at the first error. How do I disable the building of the libs you are mentioning?

I I think you'll need to use a more recent version. The support for bare metal x86_64 wasn't added until r127798: <http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs?view=rev&revision=127798>. You could probably just apply that patch to whatever version you're using. > source tree and starting over).

The actual error was earlier in the process, but because of -k it kept continuing to build things that didn't depend on the makefile target that errored. So the above doesn't really say anything, other than that something went wrong earlier. BTW you're definitely going to want to disable things like libmudflap, libssp, libdecnumber, libgomp, etc. if any of them turn out to be enabled by default. Brian
