I get periodic gcc internal errors compiling kde.  I have to restart the compile
several
times for it to finish:

c++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I/home/bryce/kdetest/include
-I/home/bryce/cvs/kde/qt-copy/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT

gmake[3]: *** [kwinbutton.lo] Error 1

HardHat:kdebase> gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/specs
gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98)

It's not repeatable on any one file.  Usually if I cd to the directory in
question and
gmake there, I can get past the blockage.  I know it does not make any sense.
