This is weird. I killed my setiathome processes and emerge python again. It was compiled with no error.

[Comment 2 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2004-01-31 07:43:21 UTC]

maybe a hardware problem or bad memory? when it says internal error, tis means a problem with your GCC, maybe try merging gcc with lower optimisations. but this bug is pretty much invalid.

[Comment 3 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2004-01-31 07:43:40 UTC]

try again

[Comment 4 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2004-01-31 07:43:57 UTC]

i mean invalid
