After install was complete and booted into system. I ran ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~sparc" emerge --update --deep world Every thing was fine up until sys-devel/gcc-3.3.3-r5. I received a compile error. Google gives no mention of the error, so I am here. /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/strerror.c:465: warning: static declaration for `sys_nerr' follows non-static /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/strerror.c:466: error: conflicting types for `sys_errlist' /usr/include/bits/sys_errlist.h:28: error: previous declaration of `sys_errlist' make[1]: *** [strerror.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -mcpu=ultrasparc -O2 -I. -I/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/../include -W -Wall -Wtraditional -pedantic /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/splay-tree.c -o splay-tree.o make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -mcpu=ultrasparc -O2 -I. -I/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/../include -W -Wall -Wtraditional -pedantic /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/strsignal.c -o strsignal.o make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/regex.c: In function `xregcomp': /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/regex.c:8043: warning: signed and unsigned type in conditional expression /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/regex.c:8082: warning: function `free' was previously declared within a block /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/regex.c: In function `xregexec': /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/regex.c:8161: warning: function `free' was previously declared within a block /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/regex.c: In function `xregerror': /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/regex.c:8178: warning: unused parameter `preg' /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/regex.c: In function `xregfree': /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/gcc-3.3.3/libiberty/regex.c:8227: warning: function `free' was previously declared within a block make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.3-r5/work/build/libiberty' make: *** [all-libiberty] Error 2 !!! ERROR: sys-devel/gcc-3.3.3-r5 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 552, Exitcode 2 !!! (no error message) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. I installed 2004.1 sparc64 stage 3 on Ultra2, booted the system, set the USE keywords. 2. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~sparc" emerge --update --deep world 3. Compile failed at sys-devel/gcc-3.3.3-r5 Actual Results: emerge errored out. I restarted again, same results, tried it again as a single package, failed as well. did a ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~sparc" emerge --pretend --update --deep world. skipped the gcc and started with the next option. app-crypt/hashalot-0.2.0 built fine. sys-libs/cracklib-2.7-r9 failed to compile sys-libs/pam-0.77-r1 failed to compile sys-apps/shadow-4.0.4.1-r2 said there was nothing to update. sys-apps/baselayout-1.9.4 installed I did etc-update Then needed to shutdown the sparc and got a seg fault with shutdown -h now also with reboot. At this point I figured something earlier in the build process pooched the system and I am starting over now. Expected Results: Built gcc and completed the --update --deep world. I am running a Ultra2, 2x200Mhz US1, 512MiB OPB 3.25 (iirc).

Ouch. Your CHOST is bad. Try rebuilding everything with sparc-unknown-linux-gnu.
Ciaran, You were correct. I started over with sparc-unknown-linux-gnu as CHOST. emerge update world worked fine.
