Bug ID: 57738
Summary: gcc-4.8.1 bootstrap gets unrecognized symbol type
"gnu_unique_object" (centos6.4)
Product: gcc
Version: 4.8.1
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: bootstrap
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: karl at freefriends dot org
I'm trying to compile gcc-4.8.1 from the original source on CentOS 6.4
(32-bit). I unpacked gcc and mpc-1.0.1, mpfr-3.1.2, gmp-5.1.2 (the latest
released versions of each), made symlinks to the libs, and ran configure from a
sibling directory, like this:
tar xf gcc-4.8.1.tar.bz2
...
mkdir gccbuild
cd gccbuild
../gcc-4.8.1/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gnu --enable-languages=c,c++,objc
make bootstrap
This went along fine for quite a while, but then aborted with (full command
below; it's just whatever gcc's make does):
g++ -c -DIN_GCC_FRONTEND -g -DIN_GCC [...] ../../gcc-4.8.1/gcc/cp/except.c
/tmp/ccKcKFPk.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccKcKFPk.s:7332: Error: unrecognized symbol type "gnu_unique_object"
/tmp/ccKcKFPk.s:8051: Error: unrecognized symbol type "gnu_unique_object"
make[3]: *** [cp/except.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/u/local/gnu/src/gccb/gcc'
Looking at the configure output, I see:
checking assembler for gnu_unique_object... no
So, on the face of it, it seems that cp/except.c shouldn't be trying to use
this feature?
FWIW, /usr/bin/as --version on this system (CentOS 6.4, fully patched) says:
GNU assembler version 2.20.51.0.2-5.36.el6 20100205
Thanks,
Karl
