Well, dear GCC users I am now seeing behavior that falls in the arean of the bizarre. No sense in talking much about it but here is the error message :
/opt/bw/src/GCC/gcc_4.6.2/gcc-4.6.2/intl/configure: line 7353: .: ./conf4075subs.sh: file is too large configure: error: could not make ./config.status Since this happens within 60 seconds I may as well post the whole configure report as well as the actual results and then see if anyone can spot the issue here : First a bit of info. titan$ which gstrip /opt/bw/bin/gstrip titan$ gstrip --version GNU strip (Blastwave.org Inc.
