Parrot doesn't seem to compile & install under Fedora Core 4.
This is on a fresh install of FC4 (with update packages as appropriate),
and a fresh checkout of Parrot (r8430).
I get the following error during the "make":
ops/core_ops_switch.c
ops/experimental.ops: In function 'switch_core':
ops/experimental.ops:436: error: unable to find a register to spill in class 'DI
This was already reported some time ago. I proposed to try to modify
ops/core_ops_switch.c:174 to exclude explicit register allocation for
gcc 4.x:
#if ... && __GNUC__ < 4
If this works then the change has to be done in
lib/Parrot/OpTrans/CSwitch.pm
