btw when i try to run the configure part of fmodl separately it does not seem to have any issue. correct contest file is created. There is also conftest.err with conftest.c:121: warning: conflicting types for built-in function 'fmodl' but i do not think this is any issue. I am not getting why it exits at this point. Can you copy paste your configure options here ? or any other options you used for compilation that matter ? -Rohit On Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 1:47 PM, David Edelsohn <dje.gcc@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > [Redirecting to gcc-help] > > On Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 1:36 PM, Rohit <will.u.tellmemore@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > >> I have not specified any options to configure. >> just ./configure and gmake > >> libstdc++v3 is being compiled with (this is from config.log ) >> >> /mnt/gcc-4.3.2/libstdc++-v3/configure --cache-file=./config.cache >> --enable-multilib --enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,java,objc >> --program-transfor >> m-name=s,y,y, --with-target-subdir=powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0 >> --build=powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0 --host=powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0 >> --target=powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0 --srcd >> ir=../../gcc-4.3.2/libstdc++-v3 >> >> Any ideas why it might be failing. config.cache remains empty and >> every time i do this it takes lot of time as it tries to do all this >> again.
