I think he is right, because when upgrading host where was gcc3.2 to current -CURRENT (with gcc3.3) 'make world' builds make(1) in first place and it is builded by gcc3.2 with CPUTYPE=p4, so it will be broken.
So gcc have to be upgraded in first place (with CPUTYPE=p3).
Hhm, sounds reasonable.
However, I had the exact same problem updating from a 5.1-RC to a recent current on a P III 900, and there, I had CPUTYPE=p3 in make.conf.
Removing CPUTYPE eventually gave me back working systems (I did restore 5.1-R bits prior to make world). Unfortunatly, I don't have the resources to investigate this further, but for the time being, I will not use CPUTYPE until others can confirm it's safe :-)
Thanks all, Stefan
