Please, could be be more verbose?

I cannot found such error in koji build logs. There are ppc as well as ppc64 binary packages generated by the koji build. 

It seems the build failed on any koji DB error.

Sorry, that seems to have been the wrong link:

http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=127507&name=build.log

In that build.log is the error. We were able to successfully rebuild it on ppc with an older gcc than 4.6.0.

http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=27104

Reassigning to gcc.

mount.c: In function 'try_mount_one.constprop.8':
mount.c:140:29: error: opt_map causes a section type conflict

Note that there is NOT anything like  __attribute__((section ())), the code is there for years.

gcc:
   4.6.0-0.5.fc15 (PPC)

gcc cmdline:

   gcc -std=gnu99 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I..  -include ../config.h -I../include -DLOCALEDIR=\"/usr/share/locale\"  -fpie -fsigned-char -I../shlibs/blkid/src  -fsigned-char -I../shlibs/mount/src -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m32 -c -o mount-mount.o `test -f 'mount.c'

code that generates the error:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/util-linux/util-linux.git;a=blob;f=mount/mount.c

Could you please attach preprocessed source?

Alternatively try gcc-4.6.0-0.6.fc15 when it is built on ppc too.
This could be dup of http://gcc.gnu.org/PR47610

unfortunately gcc-4.6.0-0.6.fc15 failed building on ppc:

http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=127995

another 'section type conflict'

date.c: In function 'main':
date.c:60:26: error: time_spec_string causes a section type conflict

http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=128174&name=build.log

in coreutils

I don't have access to any PPC machine with Fedora 15 :-(  The git tree with sources is at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/util-linux/util-linux.git

It is fixed with latest gcc. Thanks everyone.
