Description Ondrej Vasik 2011-01-14 12:01:10 UTC
Description of problem:

Due to rebase of the gettext in RHEL-5.6 to the version 0.17(http://bugzilla.redhat.com/523713) we started rebuilds of all packages which do depend on gettext.
Your package now fails to build from SRPM in brew. Please check the error and try to find the fix to prevent delays in build of the future security advisories. The fail seems to be unrelated to the gettext rebase.

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2011-01-20 13:55:29 UTC
/bin/sh: line 2: 24879 Killed                  /usr/bin/m4 --prefix-builtin

sounds very unlikely to be a GCC bug, probably the box OOMed and killed random processes.

Comment 2 Jeff Law 2013-03-22 15:12:18 UTC
I agree with Jakub, this is likely not a GCC bug and is more likely a transient build system failure.

Just to be sure I fired off a build of GCC for RHEL 5.6 in brew which ran successfully.
