yes

I've repeated it maybe 5-10 times over the last several weeks.

I don't know if this is a regression. I think lapack dependency
in freebsd ports recently moved from gcc44 to gcc45, so
probably I haven't tried to build gcc45 until a few weeks ago.

what specifically?

The versions of the libraries mentioned on my box are
above the minimum recommended:

mpfr-3.0.0
gmp-5.0.1
binutils-2.20.1_3

or did I miss something else?

Yes, to read carefully, especially the second paragraph.

As it is hard to downgrade the port versions (it might break port
interdependency), I tried instead to use a more recent gcc to build
the ports in question and gcc45 itself.

I rebuilt gmp-5.0.1, mpfr-3.0.0 and binutils-2.20.1_3 with gcc 4.4.6 20101026.

I'm now trying to build gcc45 also with gcc 4.4.6 20101026, instead of the
system default 4.2.1 20070719.

I now get stopped here:

Why do people always ignore this line?

At a guess, I'd say you don't have the prerequisites installed in a system dir,
or haven't re-run ldconfig, so the dynamic linker can't find the libs, in which
case try setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Probably the same issue.  Did you run 'make check' for GMP and MPFR?  If there
are failures, it's not worthwhile to try to build GCC with them.

yes, GMP fails 14 tests:
http://seis.bris.ac.uk/~mexas/gmp-5.0.1-regression-test.log

I submitted a bug report to gmp-bugs.

MPFR passes all tests.

Sorry, I should've checked before.

--- Comment #13 from Anton Shterenlikht <mexas at bristol dot ac.uk> 2010-12-25 09:21:48 UTC ---
I switched back to the default system compiler:
 gcc (GCC) 4.2.1 20070719  [FreeBSD]

now GMP passes all tests, gcc45 is built fine, and
I can build and run lapack fine. No idea what
happened in the meantime, as I surely started from
the system compiler in the first place. Perhaps something
changed in GMP in the meantime.

Anyway, please close this bug report.

thanks
