Hmm. I bet something is putting out instuctions newer than v4 (A netwinder CPu (SA110) has an ARM v4 instruction set. This is (arguably) OK on armel, but should not be happening on arm - debian arm is still built to the ARM v4 spec. > I guessed that this was a local installation issue, > apparently correctly, as gcl has autobuilt successfully on arm with > the latest gcc and binutils.

I'll be providing another (faster) debian-arm machine for building very soon. Should be done by the end of this week.
