I tried to compile GCC 4.3.0 on a Red Hat Linux 9.0 box, it stopped at stage 1:
$ gcc -c -g -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes

Mind you, RH 9 is an old OS---archaic by now. The `uname -a' command yields:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wirawan]$ uname -a

Anyone has idea on this error? I tried to use google, it did not yield
anything useful at this point.
