Just to confirm though, using gcc 4.7.4 that I have previously compiled with aCC that adequately passed 'make check' tests, bootstrap gcc 4.7.4 with default build flags for STAGE1. Observe PCREL21B errors and manually recompile affected .c with "-save-temps -da". Is that correct? Do you want to apply any patches to 4.7.4 or compile original code as I have done previously? > I suspect the value above needs to be zero extended rather than pointer > extended. As soon as I've read that, that error started to make sense :) Thanks! --peter
