That's why something is very odd and someone should take a look at this. That system isn't a pc with low ram, it's a production server with enough ram and there isn't any swapping going on during compilation, although it does grab nearly a whole processor for itself, so the system has to function off the rest. I have no troubles like this compiling other packages, this only happens with gcc. I tried gcc 4.3.1 recently and there were a lot more errors and the same thing happened. >> A large part of the compilation happens extremely >> slowly.

There is a lot more ram than this and no swap space is getting used during compilation, so this isn't it (I don't think so). >> In file included from >> /srv/build/obj/alphaev56-dec-osf5.1b/libstdc++-v3/include/tr1/cctype:47, >> from >> /srv/build/src/libstdc++-v3/include/precompiled/stdtr1c++.h:37: >> /srv/build/obj/alphaev56-dec-osf5.1b/libstdc++-v3/include/tr1_impl/cctype:43 >> : error: '::isblank' has not been declared > > This sounds like there would be no declaration/prototype for the > 'isblank' in the OSF5.1b standard header 'ctype.h'... Is there? That's right. Should I send the header file? -- Didier Godefroy mailto:dg@xxxxxxxxxxx Support anti-Spam legislation. Join the fight http://www.cauce.org/
