emerge gecko-sdk ( 1.7.12-r1 from ~mips ) fails with this error but builds fine on X86. X11 and most of Gnome are already working so I think there is no general error in the installed toolchain. gmake[7]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/gecko-sdk-1.7.12-r1/work/mozilla/xpcom/reflect/xptcall/src/md/unix' mips-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -o xptcinvoke_asm_mips.o -I../../../../../../dist/include/xpcom -I../../../../../../dist/include -I/var/tmp/portage/gecko-sdk-1.7.12-r1/work/mozilla/dist/include/nspr -I./../.. -x assembler-with-cpp -D__GNUC__ -c xptcinvoke_asm_mips.s <command line>:1:1: warning: "__GNUC__" redefined <built-in>:3:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition xptcinvoke_asm_mips.s: Assembler messages: xptcinvoke_asm_mips.s:41: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `4' xptcinvoke_asm_mips.s:97: Warning: No .cprestore pseudo-op used in PIC code xptcinvoke_asm_mips.s:123: Warning: No .cprestore pseudo-op used in PIC code xptcinvoke_asm_mips.s:149: Warning: Float register should be even, was 13 gmake[7]: *** [xptcinvoke_asm_mips.o] Error 1 Looks like this is the only error because make -k reported no additional failures.

Where did you get the idea that it would compile? Neither of them has ever been keyworded for mips.

We know about the problem, and might have a patch to fix this (although it needs to be tested with newer stuff). However, Jakub is totally correct. These ebuilds do not, and have not ever been keyworded for mips. Until then, any bugs are invalid, since we don't support these packages.

Looks like gecko-sdk only fails on one ASM file. kind regards
