Since the introduction of version 3.4.0 I'm unable to build gcc. I've build it many times before, but with 3.40, 3.4.1, 3.4.2 it is always the same, under all possible variations regarding build directory etc.: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/GCC/Install_3.4.2> make bootstrap Configuring in libiberty configure: creating cache ./config.cache checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking for makeinfo... makeinfo checking for perl... perl checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-ar... ar checking for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-ranlib... ranlib checking for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking whether gcc and cc understand -c and -o together... yes checking for an ANSI C-conforming const... yes checking for inline... inline checking whether byte ordering is bigendian... no checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c Appending /home/csoliver/GCC/gcc-3.4.2/libiberty/../config/mh-x86pic to xhost-mkfrag checking for sys/file.h... yes checking for sys/param.h... yes checking for limits.h... yes checking for stdlib.h... yes checking for malloc.h... yes checking for string.h... yes checking for unistd.h... yes checking for strings.h... yes checking for sys/time.h... yes checking for time.h... yes checking for sys/resource.h... yes checking for sys/stat.h... yes checking for sys/mman.h... yes checking for fcntl.h... yes checking for alloca.h... yes checking for sys/pstat.h... no checking for sys/sysmp.h... no checking for sys/sysinfo.h... yes checking for machine/hal_sysinfo.h... no checking for sys/table.h... no checking for sys/sysctl.h... yes checking for sys/systemcfg.h... no checking for sys/wait.h that is POSIX.1 compatible... yes checking whether time.h and sys/time.h may both be included... yes checking whether errno must be declared... no checking for egrep... grep -E checking for ANSI C header files... yes checking for sys/types.h... yes checking for sys/stat.h...

Same behaviour with Suse 9.0, 9.1, on 32-bit pc, laptop and 64-bit workstation. I would be very glad for some help: I don't know how many days I've spent with that issue in vain, and on the help mailing list I didn't get any response.
