Bug 31734 – can't build kahakai

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Pascal Roussel 2003-10-22 03:19:05 UTC]

when trying to emerge kahakai-0.5 g++ can't compile MenuLoader.cc

it eats all CPU and memory trying to compile this file.
Even after 30 minutes it is still running and slowly filling all available ram.

I'm using gcc-3.2.3


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge kahakai

I tried to compile it with the same setup ( exept that I own a p4 ) ,it works
fine here.

[Comment 2 Craig Joly 2003-10-22 10:06:15 UTC]

I have the same problem with 0.5 on my k6-2.  But it compiles fine on my
P4 at work.
Except for -march, all of the CFLAGS are the same.  The only difference seems
to be that I use Xinerama at work.

[Comment 3 Pascal Roussel 2003-10-22 17:19:15 UTC]

I just tryed with CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O0 -pipe"
instead of CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe" that I normaly use
and it worked.

I also unpacked the sources and tryed to invoke make manualy on different
targets.
I could successfuly compile every source file with -O3 except MenuLoader.cc
that can only be built with -O0.

should be fixed with latest version in portage
