 Hi Phil,
 
 You cannot build the current cvs libgcj with gcc 2.95.2. Please checkout the latest gcc from cvs and try it with that, or take a look at
 http://sourceware.cygnus.com/java/download.html for other options. We know this is a sub-optimal situation, but we're bound by gcc release
 schedules as to when we can release a new stable gcj/libgcj combination.
 
 regards

 Actually, that's how I did try to create libgcj: download gcc from CVS,
 build it using my RH installed compiler (egcs-1.1.2), then using the new
 compiler (2.95.2), compile libgcj.  If I had received some other bug, I
 would have imagined that it was just shame on me for using a new, unstable
 release, but it's the same bug that's been around for a month.
 
 Thanks!

 Let me know if you still have problems building recent snapshots of
 the compiler and run-time trees (which I doubt, x86 Red Hat Linux 6.x
 is used by a lot of people and the `SP mismatch' has been reported to
 me only three times: internally when it was discovered, by someone
 building on Solaris/x86 (using an outdated compiler) and by you)
 otherwise I'll close this PR.

 I just noticed that egcs is a bit unstable these days. Yesterday I
 couldn't link cc1. Today, cc1plus bombs building libio. But that's on
 Linux/x86, YMMV.

 I'm right now in the middle of using the 5/1 egcs snapshot to build gcc/gcj/libgcj according to the build instructions here:  http://sourceware.cygnus.com/java/build-snapshot.html .  It's still progressing just fine, currently on step #5 (build egcs/gcj).
 
 If encounter problems, any ideas what snapshot to roll back to?
 
 I realize how sensitive the combination of snapshots, bootstrap compilers, and build environment are, so sorry to hassle you and the rest of the GCC/GCJ team.  It's just I really want to use this stuff! ;)

 I wish.  I'm still using 4-26 for most stuff, but I always keep
 gcc/java fully up-to-date.  I don't update very often, because if I
 get a bad gcc I might have to keep it for a while :-(

 I'm pretty sure you won't have any SP problems building the current
 tree -- when it'll get build-able.
 
 I'm closing the PR. Thank your for your patience and abnegation.

 There's a note on this in the FAQ.
 What is recommended right now depends on what you want to do.
 (We agree it is a bad situation, but there isn't an easy fix.)
