Summary:                    make didn't run through buildroot
Description: 
I tried compiling buildroot following the instructions on
http://buildroot.uclibc.org/buildroot.html
but make didn't run through. I did:

~/buildroot$ make menuconfig
~/buildroot$ make -d 2>&1 |tee logfile

Here is some tail from the logfile (omitted lots of checking lines):

Sounds like
http://gcc.gnu.org/PR16838

Just reporting a 'me too' bug report, it is fixed when MULTILIB is turned
off though as suggested in the GCC bug report.

Any ideas how to get around it?  I am building for an arm926t target with
a i386 host.  Below I have attached the relevant bits from my config.  In
addition when building uclibc I throw through ARCH_HAS_MMU=N,
BUILD_UCLIBC_LDSO=Y, DL_FINI_CRT_COMPAT=N and UCLIBC_MALLOC_DEBUGGING=N.

I'm using the 'buildroot-20061029' snapshot and applying the patch
mentioned in the mailing list[1].  I'm happy to be a 'test monkey' too if
people need me to do some legwork for them.

Cheers

Alex

jimdigriz,
Can you please attach your buildroot.config and your uClibc.config

thanks

Please retry with current trunk and gcc >= 4.1, preferably 4.2

I shall close this report as fixed unless i hear anything back within a
few days.
Thanks for the report.

Hi,

Sorry for not being able to get back to you.  I am unable to repeat the
issue
and the original project that needed buildroot 'expired' :-/

Anyway, once again sorry for having wasted your time.

Regards

Alex
