--- Comment #3 from Gary Funck <gary at intrepid dot com> 2012-12-02 21:32:14 UTC --- This failure may be related to the use of the installed gcc compiler (gcc (SUSE Linux) 4.3.4 [gcc-4_3-branch revision 152973]). I tried a gcc 4.7.0 compiler that we built circa Feb, 2012 and it didn't segfault, but rather fails with an apparently unrelated error while compiling 'gmp' ("redc_2.c:87:7: error: 'asm' operand requires impossible reload"). I will try building svn revision 152973 on an x86-64 box, and see if the problem can be reproduced there.
