That's known trouble due to their GCC using `-fpie/-pie` by default now. One way to work around is adding `-with-pic` to the configure step when building GMP. We could do that automatically. I guess, there is something in `gcc -dumpspecs` that could be used. Can you provide that output for the failing GCC, please. Nico > > This error only happens when buildgcc uses gcc 6.2.
