In article <ho7l0bdhxb.fsf@gee.suse.de> you write:
>A bootstrap of the current release branch fails on ia64 with:
A known problem. See the fifty or so messages in the following thread.
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2001-04/msg00471.html
The quick summary is
1) The problem will go away when Richard Henderson finishes his big C++ EH ABI/
Unwind API patch and puts it on the branch. This is why it fails on the
branch but not on the trunk.
2) It is trivial to work around the problem by producing wrong debug info, but
it is unclear if that is desirable.
3) I have a pointer from Mark Mitchell to what might be the correct fix,
but haven't investigated this suggestion yet.
