I've tried twice. I can't compile latest Firefox on Sparc. I had no such problems with previous Firefox 1.0.8. Here's the log: sparc-unknown-linux-gnu-g++ -o nsDOMClassInfo.o -c -fvisibility=hidden -fvisibility-inlines-hidden -D_IMPL_NS_LAYOUT -DMOZILLA_INTERNAL_API -DOSTYPE=\"Linux2.6\" -DOSARCH=\"Linux\" -DBUILD_ID=2006060912 -I./../events -I../../../content/xbl/src -I../../../dist/include/xpcom -I../../../dist/include/string -I../../../dist/include/webbrwsr -I../../../dist/include/commandhandler -I../../../dist/include/js -I../../../dist/include/widget -I../../../dist/include/gfx -I../../../dist/include/layout -I../../../dist/include/content -I../../../dist/include/caps -I../../../dist/include/docshell -I../../../dist/include/xpconnect -I../../../dist/include/pref -I../../../dist/include/oji -I../../../dist/include/necko -I../../../dist/include/mimetype -I../../../dist/include/java -I../../../dist/include/locale -I../../../dist/include/uriloader -I../../../dist/include/xuldoc -I../../../dist/include/webshell -I../../../dist/include/view -I../../../dist/include/uconv -I../../../dist/include/shistory -I../../../dist/include/plugin -I../../../dist/include/windowwatcher -I../../../dist/include/chardet -I../../../dist/include/find -I../../../dist/include/appshell -I../../../dist/include/intl -I../../../dist/include/unicharutil -I../../../dist/include/rdf -I../../../dist/include/xultmpl -I../../../dist/include/jar -I../../../dist/include/dom -I../../../dist/include -I/usr/include/nspr -I../../../dist/sdk/include -fPIC -DGENTOO_NSPLUGINS_DIR=\"/usr/lib/nsplugins\" -DGENTOO_NSBROWSER_PLUGINS_DIR=\"/usr/lib/nsbrowser/plugins\" -fno-rtti -fno-handle-exceptions -Wconversion -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Woverloaded-virtual -Wsynth -Wno-ctor-dtor-privacy -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -Wno-long-long -mcpu=v8 -mtune=ultrasparc -pipe -Wno-deprecated -Wno-return-type -w -freorder-blocks -fno-reorder-functions -fshort-wchar -pthread -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -ffunction-sections -O2 -DGENTOO_NSPLUGINS_DIR=\"/usr/lib/nsplugins\" -DGENTOO_NSBROWSER_PLUGINS_DIR=\"/usr/lib/nsbrowser/plugins\" -DMOZILLA_CLIENT -include ../../../mozilla-config.h -Wp,-MD,.deps/nsDOMClassInfo.pp nsDOMClassInfo.cpp {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}:20869: Warning: end of file not at end of a line; newline inserted sparc-unknown-linux-gnu-g++: Internal error: Killed (program cc1plus) Please submit a full bug report.

emerge --info, please. Also, does it fail repeatedly at *exactly* the same place? Looks more like out-of-memory or something completely unrelated to FF.
Ok, I've installed more RAM and now it was able to compile. But there's another error at the end: Updating firefox chrome registry... /usr/libexec/mozilla-launcher: line 582: regchrome: command not found E: regchrome exited with status: 127 E: //usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/extensions/installed-extensions.txt still present E: Registration might have gone wrong
(In reply to comment #2) > /usr/libexec/mozilla-launcher: line 582: regchrome: command not found That's not an error, it's intended. Also, completely unrelated to the original bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 20600 ***
