The problem here is that with large things breaking, I'm led to suspect hardware. If you want to rule that out, there are known-good binary copies of gcc + glibc in the archive over at http://chinstrap.alternating.net , if you dare grab one from there (i686 compile) those "should" work. built on stable x86 , no fuzz or weirdness... However, thats about all I can suggest, the fact that it fails under heavy load, and not always at the same place, suggests that its a memory issue though :/ //Spider -- begin .signature This is a .signature virus!

I'll give it a shot here. I'm still trying to learn just what is
relevant/how to read these error spitouts. I just tried it again. Also,
glibc is failing to compile to the latest ~x86 version. Here is the

On another note, I think the Gentoo Devs are doing a damn spiffy job. I'd like to figure out how to run my car on Gentoo. Anyone care to maintain? I *am* running my car on gentoo. Well, my car PC not my car... It has a 7" touch screen in the dash and a dual P3 1GHz system mounted in a custom case in the trunk. Of course it's running gentoo :-). I have pictures of the project.

Anything above -O2 , basically. This is done in the ebuild already

you may, some programs might have miscompiled earlier, so an upgrade
would be necessary for them to work properly / even compile. Case to
case basis, generally its ok not to, but compiler upgrades are always a
good idea inside the same version.

ordering, depending on the target the dependency tree is calculated
differently. (there are multiple targets inside "world" which will be
incorporated into a best-fit way, when doing a single target you will
get a less branched path. )

Hmm, Thats a lot of cd's youd have to throw out on the ground to make
it run all the way on it, I'd start by parking it on Gentoo. Much
simpler and less cd's required.

Now, whats the exact error when compiling gcc? Not just the ERROR:
foo/bar-baz at line... put some 30-50 lines more than that so we get a
context.
