Description fabio oliveira 2005-02-07 09:52:00 UTC
When emerging caml-light, it fails with this error:

make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/caml-light-0.75/work/cl75/src/lib'
make: *** [world] Error 2

!!! ERROR: dev-lang/caml-light-0.75 failed.

This may be a hardware problem on your side, i can't reproduce the bug although i have the same gcc version. Could you retry ?
Comment 2 fabio oliveira 2005-02-08 05:14:11 UTC
Tried, and the result is the same. The error occurs in this part:

../camlrun ../camlcomp -stdlib . -O none -g -W gc.ml
../camlrun ../camllibr -o stdlib.zo bool.zo eq.zo exc.zo int.zo fstring.zo string.zo fchar.zo char.zo float.zo list.zo fvect.zo vect.zo io.zo pair.zo arg.zo filename.zo hashtbl.zo lexing.zo parsing.zo printexc.zo sort.zo printf.zo stream.zo stack.zo queue.zo format.zo random.zo genlex.zo baltree.zo set.zo map.zo gc.zo
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x0808c000 ***
make[1]: *** [stdlib.zo] Aborted

If you have any suggestion, I am more than happy to try it.
Comment 3 Matthieu Sozeau (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-21 10:17:29 UTC
No, i have no suggestion, and as caml-light is not really supported i guess 
you're alone in the dark here.
