Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attachment #60817|0 |1 is obsolete| | --- Comment #13 from Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Created attachment 60819 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=60819&action=edit patch This one builds, but it crashes immediately because there is runtime initialization of static const struct cbl_field_t empty_float = { 0, FldFloat, FldInvalid, intermediate_e, 0, 0, 0, nonarray, 0, "", 0, cbl_field_t::linkage_t(), {16, 16, 32, 0, NULL}, NULL }; which ends up trying to build a REAL_CST tree before anything is initialized (in particular before float128_type_node is). The {16, 16, 32, 0, NULL} is the respective initializer which is triggering that particular initialization. Reverting back to NULL_TREE as default initializer and making get_value () build a zero would be a workaround. Embedding REAL_VALUE_TYPE instead of tree would be another. That said, a good prerequesite for this whole change is to make the cobol tree coretypes.h and tree.h safe, aka get rid of HOWEVER_GCC_DEFINES_TREE and the possible C++ linkage issue having interfaces with 'tree' differently mangled.
