Description Bill Colvin 2002-10-22 20:10:05 UTC

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.

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2002-11-27 17:21:07 UTC
Should be fixed in gcc-3.2.1-1 in rawhide.
