To see what's wrong, the assembly code needs to be looked at. The range that you showed is characteristic of a 17-bit pc-relative branch. In PA 2.0, calls use 21-bit pc-relative branches. If the .level directive is correct for the file, then the problem must be due to an unconditional jump with an incorrect branch distance calculation. I don't believe there are any major problems with the branch distance calculations in 4.3 and latter (last releases). You might try working around this problem as follows: 1) Manually compile object that's failing with -O2. This will reduce function sizes and probably avoid the out of range error. Then, restart bootstrap. If build suceeds, install new compiler and recheck that you can sucessfully bootstrap. I suggest -O2 since various reorg bugs appear at -O1. This is simplest work around. 2) The other alternative is to abandon your gcc64 and build a new boostrap compiler with HP aCC or C (ANSI). I haven't tried this in some time. 3) I could provide you with a working bootstrap compiler. Unfortunately, I can't make the file publicly available. If you get a working compiler going, it would be great if you could post it on the net as you have done for some other builds. Option 2 isn't that easy. Dave
