[Bug target/42287] New: xgcc: Internal error: Segmentation fault (program as)

[mark at advancedtechcorp dot com]

Attempting to build GCC for a powerpc-linux-gnu target.  Host machine is i686
running Linux 2.6.31.6-145.fc12.i686.PAE

Get the dreaded "checking for suffix of object files... configure: error:
cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile  See `config.log' for
more details." message.  Looking at config.log (in powerpc-linux-gnu/libgcc), I
find a message telling me to report the segmentation fault of as.  So, I'm
doing it.

What a pain it is to build GCC for this target.  Any help is greatly
appreciated.

This means your assembler is crashing.  The assembler is part of the binutils
project.

Sorry, I'm getting old.  I read the instructions in the config log that stated:

 "Please submit a full bug report.  See <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html> for
instructions".  So, looking at that page it says:

"Where to post it"  Please submit your bug report directly to the "GCC bug
database".  And the GCC bug database link points to 
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/

I guess I misread something.
