------- Comment #12 from rob1weld at aol dot com 2007-07-12 00:55 ------- I am building on target i686-pc-linux-gnu and have not noticed this problem with this target. It does NOT occur for a 'regular' "make", only seems to happen with this last "make profiledbootstrap" that I did:
We have a problem of 'doubling up the directories'. This _always_ occurs for platform i686-pc-cygwin as described here (with a FIX): http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30341 That means I have these directories when the build crashed: /opt/gcc-4_3-build/stage1-gcc/stage1-gcc/ /opt/gcc-4_3-build/stage1-i686-pc-linux-gnu/stage1-i686-pc-linux-gnu/ /opt/gcc-4_3-build/stage1-intl/stage1-intl/ /opt/gcc-4_3-build/stage1-libcpp/stage1-libcpp/ /opt/gcc-4_3-build/stage1-libdecnumber/stage1-libdecnumber/ /opt/gcc-4_3-build/stage1-libiberty/stage1-libiberty/ /opt/gcc-4_3-build/stage1-zlib/stage1-zlib/ That wastes a huge amount of space if the makefiles are double building everything and not deleting (or merging) unused directories as it goes. This is likely causing the BCF, the "*.gcda not found, execution counts estimated" problem, and other related errors. You say "compiler now bootstraps", I hope that means the 'doubling' is fixed since it could knock out builds on smaller (or nearly full) HDs. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32589
