Hi. I have built myself a cross-compiler x86->arm-linuxeabi, with
which I'm having some problems.
My current toolchain is built like this:
../${GCCDIST}/configure \
--build="${BUILD_ARCH}" \
--host="${BUILD_ARCH}" \
--target="${GNU_ARCH}" \
--with-cross-host="${GNU_ARCH}" \
--prefix="${PREFIX}" \
--libdir="${PREFIX}/lib" \
--includedir="${PREFIX}/include" \
--with-headers="${PREFIX}/include" \
--with-local-prefix="${PREFIX}/${GNU_ARCH}" \
--program-prefix="${PROGRAM_PREFIX}" \
--disable-nls \
${ARCHARG} ${FLOATARG} \
${GMPARG} ${MPFRARG} \
${GCC_LANG_ARG} \
${GCC_CONF_ARG}
make all && make install install_root="${PREFIX}"
BUILD_ARCH=i686-linux
GNU_ARCH=arm-linuxeabi
ARCH_ARG="--with-arch=armv5t --with-tune=arm926ej-s--with-cpu=arm926ej-s"
GCC_LANG_ARG="--enable-languages=c,c++"
GCC_CONF_ARG="\
--enable-shared \
--enable-threads=posix \
--enable-symvers=gnu \
"
This is part of a larger script setting up a cross-compiling
toolchain. binutils, glibc and a first-stage gcc for arm is already
built at this point. I have tried gcc-4.2.2 and gcc-4.2.3. Our
codebase isn't quite ready for 4.3 yet...
When I run on target, a simple test program with exceptions fail:
===8<===8<===
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main() {
try {
throw "hello";
}
catch(const char *e) {
fprintf(stderr, "I caught %s\n", e);
exit(1);
}
catch(...) {
fprintf(stderr, "I caught something\n");
exit(1);
}
fprintf(stderr, "Still happy, but why??\n");
exit(0);
}
===8<===8<===
Fails like this:
$ /tmp/fnord
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'char*'
terminate called recursively
Aborted
I've also tried throwing ints, but to no avail.
The test application was built like this:
arm-linuxeabi-g++ -fexceptions -frtti -o /tmp/fnord /tmp/fnord.cpp
My next try is a new toolchain, built with --with-sjlj-exceptions, but
then gcc fails to build:

Does anyone have any great ideas as to either how to get exceptions
working without --with-sjlj-exceptions, or alternatively how to get
that working?
