Hi Phil et al,
I've been trying to do a clean build of tools so that I can compile
Arm-Linux v2.2.2.
After running for over an hour, my GLIBC2.1 build failed with an
internal compiler error. I am using the half built ecgs1.1.1 to build
glibc so that I can finish building egcs.
Please not the following. I am using Solaris 2.5.x, and my normal
login shell is tcsh. For all my arm building I have run everything
from xterms running bash. I also set SHELL=/usr/bin/bash and
CONFIG_SHELL=/usr/bin/bash.
However, I still come up against problems when Makefiles assume
that bin/sh is actually bash, as follows: many sub makefiles explicitly
set the shell (to bin/sh) and then go and do things that bin/sh doesn't
do, like test -n ....., or echo -n ......
I have been explicitly forcing the makefile to use bash in the instances
that I have found, but I don't know whether I have caught all the
problems.
This is extremely frustrating.
I had to do this for binutils, and also for glibc.
The last case in glibc was in the csu directory where the makefile
generates the version_info.h file using an echo -n contruct.
Can something please be done in relation to this problem.
In regards my specific problem, here is the compiler error generated:
Can someone please help? I've also attached my own build log for
the whole build process on Solaris.

--with-headers=/home/elph/tjl/work/sw/kernel/linux/include
37. Theoretically run make at this stage. However, it falls over because sub-makefiles
are reverting to /bin/sh for some unknown reason, and the Makefile in the
glibc-2.1/csu directory uses an echo -n "....." construct which fails under /bin/sh.
Fix at the moment was to add SHELL=/usr/bin/bash to top of csu Makefile.
38. make.
