--- Comment #4 from Jay <jay.krell at cornell dot edu> 2010-12-11 08:47:22 UTC --- It appears to also be ok in 4.3.5. j...@alphalinux:~$ $HOME/gcc-4.3.5/bin/gcc -v Using built-in specs. Target: alphaev5-unknown-linux-gnu Configured with: /home/jay/src/gcc-4.3.5/configure -prefix=/home/jay/gcc-4.3.5 Thread model: posix gcc version 4.3.5 (GCC) j...@alphalinux:~$ $HOME/gcc-4.3.5/bin/gcc 1.c 2.c -fPIC -shared => success 4.4.5 I think has a bootstrap problem in libstdc++, I will confirm and open a separate bug.
