Dear folks, attached you will find a bug report for gcc-3.0, I hope this will include all information you need, if not feel free to ask for more. The bug occurs during the build of mpeg4ip-0.6.2. During the run of the compiler on this peace of code the process consumes more than 250MB of memory, and it takes up 30min to complete the task. The compiler emits the following message when crashing: sys/mode.cpp: In member function `UInt CRCMode::updateQuanStepsize()': sys/mode.cpp:566: Internal compiler error in print_rtl_and_abort, at flow.c: 6446 Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate. See for instructions. The output of gcc -v is: Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.0/specs Configured with: ../gcc-3.0/configure --with-cpu=athlon Thread model: single gcc version 3.0 Best Regards, Dirk Aust mode.ii.bz2
