I noticed that PRC tools is still using GCC 2.95 so I tried emerge'ing again but with '-march=i586' in my CFLAGS, I got the same error but with i586 instead of athlon.

I would try a few more things in CFLAGS but it takes quite a while (15-20 minutes) to get to the stage where it fails.  [Is there any way of continuing an emerge without starting right back at the beginning?]

[Comment 1 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) 2004-04-08 01:53:09 UTC]

try

gcc-config

[Comment 2 Kevin O'Rourke 2004-04-08 11:01:33 UTC]

I tried gcc-config, setting it to GCC 2.95 and the CFLAGS to have -march=i586 instead of -march=athlon and got the same thing.

Removing the -march completely seems to be working, although it's not finished building yet...

[Comment 3 Kevin O'Rourke 2004-04-08 11:02:43 UTC]

OK, it worked with no -march in CFLAGS.

Very weird.

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2004-04-08 14:36:48 UTC]

your CFLAGS are gcc-3.x related while for some reason prc-tools comes with gcc2.x which it tries to build ...

[Comment 5 SpanKY 2004-04-08 14:53:23 UTC]

was a bug in the eclass ... fixed in cvs
