When I try to build gcc-4.4.0 on the IRIX64 platform, the build fails with:

Repeated attempts kept failing at the same point, although I get no errors when
tree-phinodes.o is built. In most cases, it failed at stage2, but in the last
case it failed at stage3. The stage2 and stage3 versions of tree-phinodes.o is
a lot smaller than the stage1 version:
$ find . -name tree-phinodes.o | xargs ls -l
-rw-rw-r-- 1 stpierre sdedev 84400 May 25 15:09 ./gcc/tree-phinodes.o
-rw-rw-r-- 1 stpierre sdedev 84400 May 25 13:12 ./prev-gcc/tree-phinodes.o
-rw-rw-r-- 1 stpierre sdedev 725424 May 25 10:42 ./stage1-gcc/tree-phinodes.o
I'm configuring gcc this way:
../gcc-4.4.0/configure --prefix=/usr/local/sde/gcc-4.4.0 --disable-nls
--enable-shared --enable-static --with-ld=/usr/bin/ld --with-gmp=/usr/local/sde
--with-mpfr=/usr/local/sde
I'm using gcc-4.3.2 to compile.
