The first line of the following message is repeatet quite a few times (lets say 30 times or so). this happens when compiling gcc. i switched useflags from +pie +pic to -pie -pic and adde fortran, gcj, and objc. Running gcc-config, or rebuilding binutils didnt help. i also installed a binary gcc package - but recompile is still failing. nm: can't set BFD default target to `i686-pc-linux-gnu': Invalid bfd target rm -rf ./libgcc_eh.a { nm -pg libgcc/./_muldi3.o libgcc/./_negdi2.o libgcc/./_lshrdi3.o libgcc/./_ashldi3.o libgcc/./_ashrdi3.o libgcc/./_cmpdi2.o libgcc/./_ucmpdi2.o libgcc/./_floatdidf.o libgcc/./_floatdisf.o libgcc/./_fixunsdfsi.o libgcc/./_fixunssfsi.o libgcc/./_fixunsdfdi.o libgcc/./_fixdfdi.o libgcc/./_fixunssfdi.o libgcc/./_fixsfdi.o libgcc/./_fixxfdi.o libgcc/./_fixunsxfdi.o libgcc/./_floatdixf.o libgcc/./_fixunsxfsi.o libgcc/./_fixtfdi.o libgcc/./_fixunstfdi.o libgcc/./_floatditf.o libgcc/./_clear_cache.o libgcc/./_trampoline.o libgcc/./__main.o libgcc/./_exit.o libgcc/./_absvsi2.o libgcc/./_absvdi2.o libgcc/./_addvsi3.o libgcc/./_addvdi3.o libgcc/./_subvsi3.o libgcc/./_subvdi3.o libgcc/./_mulvsi3.o libgcc/./_mulvdi3.o libgcc/./_negvsi2.o libgcc/./_negvdi2.o libgcc/./_ctors.o libgcc/./_stack_smash_handler.o libgcc/./_ffssi2.o libgcc/./_ffsdi2.o libgcc/./_clz.o libgcc/./_clzsi2.o libgcc/./_clzdi2.o libgcc/./_ctzsi2.o libgcc/./_ctzdi2.o libgcc/./_popcount_tab.o libgcc/./_popcountsi2.o libgcc/./_popcountdi2.o libgcc/./_paritysi2.o libgcc/./_paritydi2.o libgcc/./_divdi3.o libgcc/./_moddi3.o libgcc/./_udivdi3.o libgcc/./_umoddi3.o libgcc/./_udiv_w_sdiv.o libgcc/./_udivmoddi4.o libgcc/./unwind-dw2.o libgcc/./unwind-dw2-fde-glibc.o libgcc/./unwind-sjlj.o libgcc/./unwind-c.o; echo %%; \ cat /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.4-r1/work/gcc-3.3.4/gcc/libgcc-std.ver /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.4-r1/work/gcc-3.3.4/gcc/config/libgcc-glibc.ver | sed -e "/^[ ]*#/d" -e 's/^%\(if\|else\|elif\|endif\|define\)/#\1/' \ | ./xgcc -B./ -B/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ -isystem /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/include -isystem /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/sys-include -O2 -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -isystem ./include -fPIC -DHAVE_SYSLOG -g -DHAVE_GTHR_DEFAULT -DIN_LIBGCC2 -D__GCC_FLOAT_NOT_NEEDED -D_LIBC_PROVIDES_SSP_ -I. -I. -I/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.4-r1/work/gcc-3.3.4/gcc -I/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.4-r1/work/gcc-3.3.4/gcc/. -I/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.4-r1/work/gcc-3.3.4/gcc/config -I/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.4-r1/work/gcc-3.3.4/gcc/../include -E -xassembler-with-cpp -; \ } | gawk -f /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.4-r1/work/gcc-3.3.4/gcc/mkmap-symver.awk > libgcc/./tmp-libgcc.map ar rc ./libgcc_eh.a libgcc/./unwind-dw2.o libgcc/./unwind-dw2-fde-glibc.o libgcc/./unwind-sjlj.o libgcc/./unwind-c.o nm: can't set BFD default target to `i686-pc-linux-gnu': Invalid bfd target if [ -f ranlib ] || ( [ i686-pc-linux-gnu = i686-pc-linux-gnu ] && [ -f /usr/bin/ranlib -o -f /bin/ranlib ] ) ; then \ ranlib ./libgcc_eh.a ; \ else true; fi; rm -rf ./libgcc.a No symbols seen -- broken or mis-installed nm? ar rc ./libgcc.a libgcc/./_muldi3.oS libgcc/./_negdi2.oS libgcc/./_lshrdi3.oS libgcc/./_ashldi3.oS libgcc/./_ashrdi3.oS libgcc/./_cmpdi2.oS libgcc/./_ucmpdi2.oS libgcc/./_floatdidf.oS libgcc/./_floatdisf.oS libgcc/./_fixunsdfsi.oS libgcc/./_fixunssfsi.oS libgcc/./_fixunsdfdi.oS libgcc/./_fixdfdi.oS libgcc/./_fixunssfdi.oS libgcc/./_fixsfdi.oS libgcc/./_fixxfdi.oS libgcc/./_fixunsxfdi.oS libgcc/./_floatdixf.oS libgcc/./_fixunsxfsi.oS libgcc/./_fixtfdi.oS libgcc/./_fixunstfdi.oS libgcc/./_floatditf.oS libgcc/./_clear_cache.oS libgcc/./_trampoline.oS libgcc/./__main.oS libgcc/./_exit.oS libgcc/./_absvsi2.oS libgcc/./_absvdi2.oS libgcc/./_addvsi3.oS libgcc/./_addvdi3.oS libgcc/./_subvsi3.oS libgcc/./_subvdi3.oS libgcc/./_mulvsi3.oS libgcc/./_mulvdi3.oS libgcc/./_negvsi2.oS libgcc/./_negvdi2.oS libgcc/./_ctors.oS libgcc/./_stack_smash_handler.oS libgcc/./_ffssi2.oS libgcc/./_ffsdi2.oS libgcc/./_clz.oS libgcc/./_clzsi2.oS libgcc/./_clzdi2.oS libgcc/./_ctzsi2.oS libgcc/./_ctzdi2.oS libgcc/./_popcount_tab.oS libgcc/./_popcountsi2.oS libgcc/./_popcountdi2.oS libgcc/./_paritysi2.oS libgcc/./_paritydi2.oS libgcc/./_divdi3.oS libgcc/./_moddi3.oS libgcc/./_udivdi3.oS libgcc/./_umoddi3.oS libgcc/./_udiv_w_sdiv.oS libgcc/./_udivmoddi4.oS libgcc/./_eprintf.oS libgcc/./_bb.oS libgcc/./__gcc_bcmp.oS make[3]: *** [libgcc/./libgcc.map] Error 1 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... if [ -f ranlib ] || ( [ i686-pc-linux-gnu = i686-pc-linux-gnu ] && [ -f /usr/bin/ranlib -o -f /bin/ranlib ] ) ; then \ ranlib ./libgcc.a ; \ else true; fi; make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.4-r1/work/build/gcc' make[2]: *** [libgcc.a] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.4-r1/work/build/gcc' make[1]: *** [stage1_build] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.4-r1/work/build/gcc' make: *** [bootstrap-lean] Error 2 !!!

Of course it is possible that other things broke it, i gave as much info as i can think of right now. If you need any thing else, tell me.
Dont know about it, reinstalled anyway because of a cpu upgrade and other ugly stuff.
