uic is dumping core. We can't really do anything about that, as that isn't part of gcc. We need a testcase that we can use to reproduce the problem, or evidence of an actual gcc problem.
If this is a gcc miscompilation problem, and you are compiling with a high optimization level like -O2, you could try using -O or -O0 instead.
You could try using a different gcc version. Maybe gcc-3.3.4 has a bug that isn't present in other earlier or later gcc-3.3.x versions.
You could try debugging uic to figure out why it is failing.

There are people supporting the e500 target, so it should be working reasonably well in any gcc release.
There is a special branch maintained for the e500 by Red Hat, which is called gcc-3_4-e500-branch. This can be checked out from our cvs repository. I don't know details about this branch other than what is on the web site.
