Hello, Gentoo.

Would somebody help me here, please.

When I try to emerge glibc-2.33-r1, the very first phase of the build
crashes out with:

What is clearly happening is that the C Compiler is crashing out with a
segfault.  I actually have CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION in my kernel config.

I've tried this with both GCC-10.3.0 and GCC-9.3.0 with the same results
on both.

What is going wrong? (Horrible thought - maybe my RAM is failing.)


It looks to me that it ran a test to see if you have a kernel option enabled. It didn't, looks like it crashed. And then the build warns you that you have to enable CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION in your kernel?
