------- Comment #6 from Rudolf dot Leitgeb at gmx dot at 2008-02-11 19:25 ------- I just tried the suggested patch against binutils 2.18, gcc 4.2.3 still does not compile. Also, the suggested patch does not apply cleanly against 2.18, although this only affects a .texi file which is not needed for compilation. It does indicate, though, that the patch wa snot meant for binutils 2.18 but some preversion of binutils 2.19 instead.
I hope this new version comes of binutils out soon, since 2.18 doesn't know of a platform avr35 :-( Hence gcc 4.2.3 uses avr3 which causes touble. Note: I don't fully understand why the patch doesn't work. I clearly see a line which defines the AVR3 platform to support MOVW, I did a make clean && make && make install of the manually patched binutils before trying gcc again (also with make clean && configure --target=avr && make) Maybe I have to wait for binutils 2.19 before this gets cleared up ... -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35073
