Description of problem: When trying to compile DarkIce 0.18.1, the compiler throws a segmentation fault due to an "internal compiler error" and crashes. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gcc version 4.1.2 20070502 (Red Hat 4.1.2-12) How reproducible: Configure and compile DarkIce Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install LAME 2. Install ALSA-LIB-DEVEL 3. Configure DarkIce (./configure) 4. Run Make (make) Actual results: Things go alright until the following occurs... g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I/usr/local/include -O2 -pedantic -Wall -g -O2 -MT aflibDebug.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/aflibDebug.Tpo -c -o aflibDebug.o aflibDebug.cc aflibDebug.cc:163: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault Expected results: Program should compile cleanly, and then run. Additional info: The compiler generated a "Preprocessed source" and asked me to attach it to the bug report - I have done so. This computer is registered via smolt. I updated the profile prior to sending this report. http://smolt.fedoraproject.org/show?UUID=708abba1-8424-4333-89b9-e4a8d484441c I don't compile very much, so although I am willing to do whatever I can to assist, I should be probably considered a "compiler newbie" experience wise.
Created attachment 157061 [details] Compiler Preprocessed Source
Just a small update. I totally misinterpreted the "How reproducible" question. Bad bug reporter *SMACK* :) This bug is reproducible 100% of the time.
Sorry, can't reproduce this on the attached preprocessed source. gcc-c++-4.1.2-12's cc1plus compiles this just fine, many times in a row.
What you actually could do if you can reproduce it all the time would be install gcc-debuginfo-4.1.2-12.i386.rpm and then run gdb --args /usr/libexec/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/4.1.2/cc1plus -fpreprocessed 244339.ii -quiet -dumpbase 244339.ii -mtune=generic -auxbase-strip 244339.o -g -O2 -O2 -pedantic -Wall -o 244339.s -frandom-seed=0 and under gdb run and if it segfaults, do bt, info regs etc. But as it is not reproduceable here, it will be certainly much harder to debug.
Stangeness abound! After you replied you could not reproduce the error, I tried to compile the program again. The same error continued to occur each time. When you sent the gdb instructions, I decided to give it a go. I installed the gcc-debuginfo package via yum, ran gdb with your parameters, and then executed the make again. The software built successfully! I then removed the gcc-debuginfo package, extracted a fresh copy of the software source, and tried to rebuild without gdb again. Success! Could installing/removing the gcc-debuginfo package have knocked something back into line? Its the only thing I have changed since the initial report - the hardware hasn't even been rebooted or anything. P.S. - Thank you for your quite speedy and helpful responses.
