gcc 4.1.1-r3?

Hi all, I'm trying to upgrade to alpha profile for gentoo 2007. Since
gcc 4.1.1 has been considered stable, it is included in my system
emerge process. BTW I cannot compile it. Before posting the bug
report on bugs.gentoo.org, I would like to know if somebody here has
gcc 4.1.1 working on gentoo alpha

In Gentoo/Alpha gcc is usually well tested before it goes to stable (due
to the nature of our distribution). So yes, some of us have gcc 4.1.1
working on alpha.

Anyway, it's quite difficult to check every combination present in each
system, so probably something in your system is triggering the error.
Best thing to do is file a bug and attach there your emerge --info and
the error.

We'll be happy to take care of it.

Thanks.
Kind Regards.

done. it's bug 178482

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=178482

in the meantime, do you have any hint? It is a DS25 (ev68 processor).
I've tried to change -march flag from ev67 to ev6, I've tried to
remove -j3 make option... no way!
I'm in the middle of a general upgrading, so it would be great to
have a system working in a few time. Do you think I can go on in
emerging system? I still miss these packages:

# emerge -Dup system

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating system dependencies... done!

and a 2.6 kernel (of course). I was afraid that new kernel wouldn't
work, but I have a bigger problem if neither gcc compiles... :-(

Re: gcc 4.1.1-r3? [In reply to]

Hi again, I'm trying to compile it on my own, without portage and
following portage "econf" value.
So, it seems I can compile (well, it hasn't ended yet, but seems to
go on on stage2....)
I've noticed a thing. My CFLAGS are

CFLAGS="-mieee -mcpu=ev67 -Wa,-mev6 -O2 -pipe "

as defined in /etc/make.conf, but as I emerge gcc, the CFLAGS that
appear at the top (and used during gcc build) are

CFLAGS="-mieee -mcpu=ev67 -O2 -pipe "

so the "-Wa,-mev6" has been blown away.... In past times I've found
that on ev68 processors this flag was necessary for compiling many
things (including gcc), I can't recall where I found this, but I've
posted it on safe cflags wiki on gentoo wiki.
Now I wonder how can I modify the gcc ebuild to prevent this (I
prefer the use of ebuilds in place of manual installation), but gcc
ebuild are pretty strange and fcc-4.1.1-r3 ebuild (like others, I
presume) calls some emerge functions that are not within the ebuild
itself. Can anybody help me on this?

Thanks

Ok, it compiles

I've tried this:

# ALLOWED_FLAGS='-mieee -march -Wa,-mev6 -O2 -pipe' emerge -O gcc

it inserts the '-Wa,-mev6' flag into the configure script but it
segfaults the same... :-(
I wonder if configure/make/make install will be ok and if eselect
utility understands that gcc-4.1.1 has been installed (manually). I'm
going to add it into /etc/portage/package.provided...
