Bug 14539 – glibc-2.2.5-r7 compilation failure

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description delta407 2003-01-25 11:44:09 UTC]

I've attempted to install glibc-2.2.5-r7 onto two up-to-date Gentoo boxes (i.e.
glibc-2.3.1-r2, gcc-3.2.1-r6), and both fail with the same compile error very
early in the compile process. I've done googling and poked around in the bugs
database, and none of the fixes (disabling parallel compiles, etc.) have fixed it.

I have a full build log if necessary.

Its changes in gcc-3.2.1 to support glibc-2.3.1 that borks glibc-2.2.5.  You
need to use a older 3.2 or such, else it will fail.
