Re: Bug found in linux-6.19-rc5.

[George R Goffe <grgoffe@yahoo.com>]

Dr. Dave,

I just finished the build of gcc with "-j 21". No problems. Yay!

This problem was NOT randomly occurring... It happened EVERY TIME... so... I would say that the problem was resolved by either developers or the Fedora folks (they seem to fix things sometimes so...).

I'll keep watching for this bug to re-appear. Should I contact you when/if that happens?

Thanks again for your response AND willingness to help.

Best regards,

George...

Do you have anything after that?  On a good day there should be
a bit of a backtrace below it which might help people figure out what
triggered it.

I cloned the binutils repo but bin utils doesn't want to build either. I have two gcc versions on this build system. Both builds fail in the SAME way... the same indication. Sigh...
