hi all,

out of curiosity I was trying to build eclipse from source.
I am using debian/unstable and did a fresh cvs co and build of gcc head,
which is using the tree-ssa stuff and I think the otable/atable gcj
engine already.

I was able to compile the first bunch of jars successfully, but at least
after org.apache.coyote plugin gcj segfaults with:

internal compiler error: segmentation fault
...

Is there a version of gcc/gcj which is stable enough to work?

Why is the compiler reporting a segfault in .java files, when the
command line tells to build from a binary jar file? 

Is there any trick?

thanks
