Problem with egcs-971008 on Linux Sparc

[Daniel.Veillard]

  Trying to compile egcs-971008 on a Linux-Sparc (SS5, pure RH-4.2 setup)
failed as soon as the new cross compiler is invoked. It seems that the
.eh_frame section has unaligned data :


~/src/egcs-971008/gcc -> make
./xgcc -B./  -DIN_GCC   -DUSE_GNULIBC_1 -g -I./include     -DNO_MEM 
-DNO_LONG_DOUBLE_IO -O0 -I. -c ./enquire.c
/tmp/cca32084.s: Assembler messages:

---------------------------------------------------------------

   All the warnings come from uaword misplaced after a byte. I guess
that uaword means "unaligned word", but the assembler choke on this.

~/src/egcs-971008/gcc -> as -v
GNU assembler version 2.7 (sparc-unknown-linux), using BFD version 2.7.0.2

  Do I need to upgrade my binutils before using Egcs, David any idea ?

BTW I keep on using egcs-latest with -O6 as my standard compiler on the
linux-i386, works well, good job guys !
