will try to build also see if repeatable. brb.
built ok for me. did see dozens of errors about redefinition of _POSIX_C_SOURCE from /usr/include/limits.h and numerous mentions of wrap_python.hpp. We have similar arch, and pretty tame compiler flags. Wonder if its gcc 2.95 vs gcc 3.3.2? lol2 root # emerge info Portage 2.0.50-r1 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.3.2, glibc-2.3.2-r9, 2.6.4-mm1) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.4-mm1 i686 AMD Athlon(TM) XP1800+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.3.13 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.58-r1 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.7.7 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.1 /share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/confi g /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.mirrors.pair.com/distfiles" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow X aalib alsa apache2 apm artswrappersuid avi berkdb bonobo crypt cups dvd encode esd foomaticdb freetype gdbm gif gnome gpm gtk gtk2 gtkhtml guile im lib java jpeg kde libg++ libwww mad mikmod mozilla moznocompose moznoirc moznoma il mpeg mysql ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl oss pam pda pdflib perl png ppds pyth on qt quicktime readline sdl slang spell sse ssl svga tcltk tcpd truetype x86 xm l2 xmms xv zlib"
Hm, I cannot reproduce this either, even with "-O3 -finline-functions -pthread -ftemplate-depth-100" in C[XX]FLAGS (like I see it in the failure report, though you do not have it in your CFLAGS). It definitely looks like gcc-2.95 related bug. Unfortunately I don't have gcc-2.95 based system around any more :( (and boost does not really belong to any of my herds :), but nobody else has take over it so far..), but I'll see what can be done. Meanwhile you can emerge gcc-3.3 (or 3.2) - it can coexist with 2.95.x, and you can use gcc-config to switch between proiles as necessary... In view of this workaround I'll close this bug with LATER for now. George
