(no error message) I am using -march=pentium -O3 -pipe. -march=pentium-mmx fails with a different ASM-related error. The error occurs both with and without distcc. The distcc peer is a Duron 1400 Gentoo 1.4RC3 box with 1024MB RAM. The system is a Pentium 200/MMX with 128MB RAM and a 256MB swap. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge qt Actual Results: The build progresses to the designer build, then fails.
