Description Michael Lipp 2000-09-09 06:24:02 UTC 
Trying to compile qt-2.0.0 (released) I got "an internal compiler error"
from g++,
When I switched back to glibc-2.1.3-19 everything worked fine.

I just noticed that the latest glibc breaks egcs-c++ as this is what ships with
RedHat 6.2.

Furthermore, after the initial compilation error that depends on the glibc
version,
compilation fails in a later file with egcs-c++ anyway. And I had to upgrade to
gcc-2.96 to compile qt-2.2.0. So unless the new glibc breaks egcs-c++ with
simpler tasks,
there is nothing wrong in shipping it.
