Hi Ian, > > Debian, and therefore Ubuntu, have decided to move libraries from the > directories where they found on all other GNU/Linux distros. gcc has > not been changed accordingly. There is a proposed patch here: > http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-08/msg01649.html . Thanks! That was very helpful. Instead of applying the patch, I solved my problem by switching to a Fedora 15 VM where 4.6.2 built easily. Cheers, Dana
