Summary: Error building the compiler Product: gcc Version: 4.6.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: critical Priority: P3 Component: bootstrap AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: jose.pascual-guti...@1-act.com I downloaded from one of the mirror sites the following tar balls: gcc-4.6.0.tar.gz gmp-4.3.2.tar.bz2 mpc-0.8.1.tar.gz mpfr-2.4.2.tar.bz2 I decompressed and untarred the files, which resulted in four directories, respectively: gcc-4.6.0, gmp-4.3.2, mpc-0.8.1, and mpfr-2.4.2. I then created the directory ~/gcc4 and I moved gcc-4.6.0 in it. I then changed the names of the directories gmp-4.3.2, mpc-0.8.1, and mpfr-2.4.2 to gmp, mpc, and mpfr, respectively. These three directories, namely gmp, mpc, and mpfr were moved it to ~/gcc4/gcc-4.6.0. In gcc4, I created the directory objdir. So, the directory tree looks like the following: |--gcc4 | |--objdir | |--gcc-4.6.0 | | |--gmp | | |--mpc | | |--mpfr I then proceeded to configure the installation. From ~/gcc4/objdir, I executed “../gcc-4.6.0/configure”. Once the Makefile was created, still from within ~/gcc4/objdir, I executed “make bootstrap”. After about 24 hours of execution, the build failed with the following error message: ../../../gcc-4.6.0/libgcc/../gcc/libgcc2.c:791:1: internal compiler error: Floating point exception Please submit a full bug report, With preprocessed source if appropriate.
