egcs 1.0.3a build error?

egcs 1.0.3a build error?

[Brady Brown]

I am trying to natively build egcs-1.0.3a-2 on an Atlas board (r4kc
little endian). I followed the emails and pulled down
ftp://ftp.mvista.com/pub/Area51/mips_le/misc/egcs-10.03a.tar.gz and
ftp://oss.sgi.com/pub/linux/mips/egcs/egcs-1.0.3a-2.diff.gz
applied the diff and did configure and then make. (I'm running
binutils-2.8.1 glibc-2.0.6 and egcs-1.0.2). The build fails with this
output:

/tmp/cca30501.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/cca30501.s:136: Internal error!
Assertion failure in mips_emit_delays at ./config/tc-mips.c line 2231.
Please report this bug.
make[1]: *** [xexit.o] Error 1
make: *** [all-target-libiberty] Error 2

I have been unable to figure out what the problem is.

Any ideas?

Don't think so...it worked for me, but this was CVS GCC, not 1.0.3a. I have
had no such problems with 1.0.3a.

humm...I used CFLAGS="-O1"
donno what difference the quotes make, if any...

I use c,c++

You could also try just --enable-languages=c  then using that to compile one
with c,c++ I have done that in the past too!

No, big endian. Have compiled on an Indy and an I2 loads of times...


Bye for Now,

No difference.

In any case he seems to hit a different problem than the one you're
refering to which only happens when using an old gcc suchs as egcs 1.0.3a
without optimization for compilation of a fairly recent one.
