Description of problem: Failed to build Xalan1.6 on Red Has Linux 7.2 using GNU 2.96 produces an internal compiler error. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): g++: gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.2 2.96-118.7.2) How reproducible: Every Time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download src for xerces 2.3.0 and xalan 1.6 2. extract src into directory as in step 3 3. set env #Set the environment to the following XML_HOME_DIR=/mff/sw/sw_linux/Linux2_i686/apache XERCESCROOT=${XML_HOME_DIR}/xerces-c-src_2_3_0 XALANCROOT=${XML_HOME_DIR}/xalan-C_1_6-Linux2_i686_gnu/xml-xalan/c export XERCESCROOT export XALANCROOT 4. cd $XERCESCROOT/src/xercesc ./runConfigure -p linux -c gcc -x g++ -minmem -nsocket -tnative - rpthread make 5. $XALANCROOT/xml-xalan/c/src/xalanc ./runConfigure -p linux -c gcc -x g++ make 6. building xalan will produce the internal compiler error.

RHL 7.2 is no longer supported and GCC 2.96-RH is just too old now. If you can reproduce this with some contemporary GCC, please reopen.
