while doing a revdep-rebuild, I'm getting a strange crash building gcc 4.2.1. I haven't had any problem building this package previously, so something new must have happened: /var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/build/./gcc/xgcc -B/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/build/./gcc/ -B/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ -B/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/lib/ -isystem /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/include -isystem /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/sys-include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/gcc-4.1.2/libmudflap -I. -Wall -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -O2 -O2 -march=athlon64 -pipe -MT mf-hooks2.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/mf-hooks2.Tpo -c /var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/gcc-4.1.2/libmudflap/mf-hooks2.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/mf-hooks2.o /var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/build/./gcc/xgcc -B/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/build/./gcc/ -B/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ -B/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/lib/ -isystem /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/include -isystem /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/sys-include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/gcc-4.1.2/libmudflap -I. -Wall -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -O2 -O2 -march=athlon64 -pipe -MT mf-hooks2.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/mf-hooks2.Tpo -c /var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/gcc-4.1.2/libmudflap/mf-hooks2.c -o mf-hooks2.o >/dev/null 2>&1 make[3]: *** [mf-hooks2.lo] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/build/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/libmudflap' make[2]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/build/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/libmudflap' make[1]: *** [install-target-libmudflap] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2/work/build' make: *** [install] Error 2 !!!

Sorry that's 4.1.2 not 4.2.1. W

W
Well, there's no error above. Try again w/ MAKEOPTS="-j1"
trying w/-j1 but I have a dual-core amd64. Shouldn't it be jCORES+1? W
Wow. That fixed it! But why? W
Reopen.
It looks like it's already re-opened. That's the strangest thing. How'd you know to fix it? Also, when it's -j3, it should use both cores, right? I always see it at 50% cpu usage in top rather than 100%... dunno if that's not related... W
can you post the full build log as an attachment please emerge gcc >& log
Sure.. do you want the successful build with -j1 or the busted one with -j3? W
busted
k, it's started. This'll be a HUGE log as it blows up after an hour & a half of compiling, but stay tuned.. just watching top, CPU(s) never gets above 48%.. W
that's what compression (bzip2) is for
Well amazingly somehow it built successful this time with -j3. I can't explain it, but i'm going to close this bug. Thanks to whomever suggested the change... I'm gonna leave it on -j3 for now, and if i experience the bug again I'll include a log. W
