Hi, When performing a cross-build (see the triplets I entered above), a file named "as" gets created which gets used instead of the right assembler, thus breaking the build.
Pls. note that I've entered the target triplets we're building (see http://cegcc.sourceforge.net), this gcc build bug is probably unrelated to them. I've had to work around this by using a script such as the one pasted below. I've reported this to the mailing list months ago (see http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2006-07/msg00533.html ) but someone asked me a couple of days ago whether I created a bugzilla report, and I don't think I did. So I'm making up for that now. Here's the script I use as workaround : mkdir -p $BUILD_DIR/gpp || exit 1 cd $BUILD_DIR/gpp || exit 1 # export CFLAGS="" # $TOP_SRCDIR/src/gcc/configure \ --prefix=$PREFIX \ --enable-languages=c,c++ \ --disable-interwork \ --disable-nls \ --enable-checking \ --disable-multilib \ --build=$MY_HOST_ARCH --target=$TGT_ARCH || exit 1 # # Deliberately no error handling here. # make # # Because we need to delete this file # rm $BUILD_DIR/gpp/gcc/as || exit 1 # # Now the build should continue smoothly # make || exit 1 exit 0 -- Summary: temporary file breaks cross-build Product: gcc Version: unknown Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: danny dot backx at scarlet dot be GCC build triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC host triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC target triplet: arm-wince-pe, arm-wince-mingw32ce, arm-wince-cegcc http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29780
