Bugzilla Bug 6551

I am using gcc-3.1.1-r1 with only the standard options "-march=i686 -03 -pipe"
I was trying to install gnome-db and in the process i had to install libgda
which failed to emerge, here is the configure part of the process.

Then it began to compile for a while.. towards the end it died with the
following error...

I hope this helps.

*** Bug 6552 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I think the ebuild should have --disable-ldap instead of --without-ldap.

I can build it just fine, a gcc3.1 only problem ? (in that case it can be
closed)

no activity anymore, probably gcc31 only bug. closing.
