Check your applied APARS for IY53606

http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#powerpc*-*-*

Building libstdc++.a requires a fix for an AIX Assembler bug APAR IY26685
(AIX 4.3) or APAR IY25528 (AIX 5.1). It also requires a fix for another AIX
Assembler bug and a co-dependent AIX Archiver fix referenced as APAR IY53606
(AIX 5.2) or a APAR IY54774 (AIX 5.1)

Hi,

I am having the same problem that particular step has been running 96+ hours
for me so far.
I was curious if you got past the problem?

My Platform is simlar to yours:
  make -v
  GNU Make 3.80
  Platform: powerpc-ibm-aix5.2.0.0
  GCC version: 3.3.2
  Configure: --enable-threads=aix --disable-nls
  Make: bootstrap-lean

R.

cross compiler for i386-pc-solaris2.9 fails on solaris sparc

[Kevin Nomura]

Hi,

I successfully built a cross compiler to i386-pc-solaris2.9 target
from a linux host.  gcc 3.4.2 or 3.4.3, binutils 2.15.

When I try the same configure and build on a solaris 2.8 sparc host 
the compile of gcrt1.s fails:

sed -e '/^!/d' </u/nomura/dl/gcc-3.4.2/gcc/config/i386/sol2-gc1.asm
>gcrt1.s
sparc-sun-solaris2.8-as -o gcrt1.o gcrt1.s
/bin/sh /u/nomura/dl/gcc-3.4.2/gcc/move-if-change tmp-mlib.h multilib.h
echo "NULL};" >> tmp-gtyp.h
echo "static const char *const all_files[] = {" >> tmp-gtyp.h
gcrt1.s: Assembler messages:
gcrt1.s:13: Error: Unknown opcode: `pushl'
gcrt1.s:14: Error: Unknown opcode: `pushl'
gcrt1.s:15: Error: Illegal operands
gcrt1.s:18: Error: Unknown opcode: `pushl'
gcrt1.s:21: Error: Illegal operands
gcrt1.s:22: Error: Unknown opcode: `testl'
gcrt1.s:23: Error: Unknown opcode: `je'
gcrt1.s:24: Error: Unknown opcode: `pushl'


I.e. it's trying to use the local assembler instead of the cross
assembler.

Cross binutils 2.15 has been built and installed in the prefix dir.

On solaris (fails):

# /u/nomura/dl/gcc-3.4.2/configure  --target=i386-pc-solaris2.9 --prefix=/x/sim/nomura/root.solaris/i386-pc-solaris2.9-gcc-3.4.2 --enable-languages=c,c++ --with-sysroot=/x/sim/nomura/root.solaris/i386-pc-solaris2.9-gcc-3.4.2/sysroot --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld 

On linux (succcessful):

# /u/nomura/dl/gcc-3.4.2/configure  --target=i386-pc-solaris2.9 --prefix=/x/sim/nomura/root.linux/i386-pc-solaris2.9-gcc-3.4.2 --enable-languages=c,c++ --with-sysroot=/x/sim/nomura/root.linux/i386-pc-solaris2.9-gcc-3.4.2/sysroot --with-gnu- as --with-gnu-ld 

Since these look the same I suppose it is something else in the
environment.  Thanks in advance for any tips.
