- I had the same problem on Solaris 2.1. Inspecting the generated assembly
- file I concluded that the error the assembler complained about
- was in the .stab[sn] entries, the debugging information.
- (I didn't take time to see whether this was cygnus-2.0.2's fault
- or a bug in /usr/ccs/bin/as)
-
- I proceeded to build gcc 2.3.2 with cygnus-2.0.2 by compiling
- without -g. (I.e., make CFLAGS= or CFLAGS=-O)
-
- The build completed without any further problems.
