Description of problem: gcc-4.4 in RHEL 5.7 will issue instructions that can not be handled by the assembler available on RHEL 5.7 (see BZ 669190). A few approaches were investigated to resolve this issue; the final/best resolution is to include an additional version of binutils that will be used by the gcc-4.4 compiler, but which will otherwise be hidden. This is a formal request to include binutils220 as an approved package for RHEL 5.8 on x86/x86_64 based platforms. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.8 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
