Hi, I have an interesting problem with compiling gcc 4.1.0 on i386-unknown-linux-gnu. Building xgcc (with gcc 3.4.3) works fine. But rebuilding the compiler with xgcc the 2nd time (with -fprofile-use) fails with an assembler error:
$ stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/ -B/usr/i386-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ -c -O2 -g
-fomit-frame-pointer -fprofile-use -freorder-blocks-and-partition -DIN_GCC -W
-Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -pedantic

-Wmissing-format-attribute -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../../gcc
-I../../gcc/. -I../../gcc/../include -I../../gcc/../libcpp/include
../../gcc/attribs.c -o attribs.o
/tmp/cc9Aywrx.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/cc9Aywrx.s:1256: Error: can't resolve `.text.unlikely' {.text.unlikely
section} - `.LCFI70' {.text section}
The assembler code generated by xgcc can be found here:
http://www.clifford.at/priv/gcc410-attribs.s.gz
My assembler is a GNU as, version 2.16.91.0.7 (i.e. HJLs linux binutils).
I've also tried it with the bit older 2.16.91.0.3 and got the same error.
It can be easily reproduced by calling `as' directly on the assembler code:
$ as --traditional-format attribs.s
attribs.s: Assembler messages:
attribs.s:1256: Error: can't resolve `.text.unlikely' {.text.unlikely
section} - `.LCFI70' {.text section}
Is this a known problem? I (better said: google) was unable to find
anything about it.
I also do not really understand the error message. The assembler is trying
to look up a symbol `.text.unlikely' in the .text.unlikely section? Sounds
strange to me and according to the assember code it should try to look up
`.LCFI71' instead. Is this a bug in binutils or gcc? Or am I doing
something wrong?
yours,

A: No.
Q: Should I include quotations after my reply?
