any answer, I tried the following:


and the build was done without obvious problem.



#define PREFERRED_DEBUGGING_TYPE DWARF2_DEBUG

by

#define PREFERRED_DEBUGGING_TYPE DBX_DEBUG

Then the original failure:

Since the problem is still there in gcc4-4.3.0-20061111 and I did not get (1) I replaced gcc/config/darwin.h by the file from gcc4-4.3.0-20061028, (2) Using the gcc/config/darwin.h from gcc4-4.3.0-20061111, I replaced:

strip: object: .//libgcc_s.1.dylib.tmp malformed object (unknown load
command 8)

disappeared (along with the other messages such as:

However the build failed with:

Using



instead of


      " %{pthread:-D_REENTRANT}"

or removing

#define NO_IMPLICIT_EXTERN_C

did not help (same failure).

Any idea about what's wrong with the new gcc/config/darwin.h when used
with OSX 10.3?

#define CPP_SPEC "%{static:%{!dynamic:-D__STATIC__}}%{!static:- D__DYNAMIC__}" #define CPP_SPEC "%{static:%{!dynamic:-D__STATIC__}}%{!static:- D__DYNAMIC__}" \

Most likely your problem is that you're using cctools that are too old. Are you using cctools-622.3 or later? Generally, every time Apple releases a new cctools, you need to upgrade to it. You'll also need /usr/bin/dsymutil. You can fake this by symlinking it to /bin/true. Mike was considering simply declaring that GCC 4.3 won't work on Mac OS 10.3. 10.3 is quite old now, and there will be very few users by the time that 4.3 is released.
