Get pulled in with emerge -u world (which was a surprise in itself as I thought 3.4.1 was a masked build). When trying to compile /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.1/work/gcc-3.4.1/gcc/crtstuff.c -DCRT_BEGIN -o crtbegin.o I get cc1: ./include: not a directory cc1: ./include: not a directory cc1: /usr/include: not a directory cc1: .: not a directory cc1: .: not a directory cc1: /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.1/work/gcc-3.4.1/gcc: not a directory cc1: /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.1/work/gcc-3.4.1/gcc/.: not a directory cc1: /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.1/work/gcc-3.4.1/gcc/../include: not a directory make[2]: *** [crtbegin.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.1/work/build/gcc' make[1]: *** [stageprofile_build] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.1/work/build/gcc' make: *** [profiledbootstrap] Error 2 !!!

Oops - now see why it got pulled in to emerge -u world!! Doh!
Could you unmask 3.4.1-r1 and give it a try? The 3.4.1 ebuild failed to build on some machines for unknown reasons. Also, how much RAM does your raq have?
RaQ has 64Mb. I'll run the lastest ebuild when the current -u world without the ~mips is finished (probably 24 hours) and report findings.
Ok, 64mb is a pretty low amount of RAM for gentoo...at least on mips machines. My Indy with only 64mb of ram has never been able to build glibc, and usually dies on gcc as well. You might try giving the machine at least 128mb of swap (if not more) if it fails again the next time you try it.
Your 3.4.1 merge is failing on the file "crtbegin.o". Could you trace up the error list, and paste/attach a more complete copy of the error? I'm bumping into an error on crtbegin.o where xgcc attempts to allocate something like 1GB of memory (in a system w/ 144MB), and thus fails. Curious to see if your error is the same. Btw, 3.4.x gets installed if you're running ~mips.
Stephen - it has 1Gb of swap and 64Mb physical memory. Joshua - will do once the remaining 38 packages (including gcc 3.3.3-r6) finish! You want me to test 3.4.1 or 3.4.1-r1?
Okay, I fixed by problem by re-merging glibc w/ 3.4.0-r6, and then merging 3.4.1. You can try the same if you want, see how far it gets. Otherwise, I can build a binpkg if needed (no f77)
Philip, Any change on this yet?
Sorry guys - been working hard on a new client had had my annual vacation. Guess the cracks opened up. Am emerging gcc-3.4.1-r2. Will probably take 24 hours. If this fails, I'll try Joshua's work-around. Philip
This worked! Apologies for the delayed follow-up - both hardrives in my 2 RaQs died on Friday so it's been a mad panic getting the mail server back up again. Philip
Awesome, thanks for the info. If you're feeling really brave, gcc-3.4.2 is now in portage :)
Not until I've got new hard drives and softraid organised!!! If I may, I'd like to pick your brains about the 2.6 kernel offline later this week - I'm going on the road until Thursday. Philip
