From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98) Description of problem: When trying to make binutils for the powerpc-eabi target, the following error message appears: ../../binutils/gas/config/tc-ppc.c:5523: Internal compiler error in simplify_subreg, at simplify-rtx.c:2452 Please submit a full bug report Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Assume a working RedHat 8.0 system with development tools installed. From disk 5 of the psyche distribution, install binutils-2.13.90.0.2-2.src.rpm The source distribution and patch files are installed in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES 2. Expand the compressed distribution binutils-2.13.90.0.2.tar.bz2 in an appropriate directory (I assume it is called binutils). Apply the patches if you wish - however, it makes no difference to this problem. 3. Make a working directory at the same level as binutils (say build-binutils) 4. cd build-binutils 5. ../binutils/configure --target=powerpc-eabi --prefix=/usr/local 6. make all Actual Results: The make terminates with the following error: ../../binutils/gas/config/tc-ppc.c:5523: Internal compiler error in simplify_subreg, at simplify-rtx.c:2452 Please submit a full bug report Expected Results: The make should have ended without error, having built the appropriate utilities for the powerpc platform ready for installation. Additional info:
Should be fixed in gcc-3.2.1-1 in rawhide.
