Bootstrap comparison failure with gcc-3.1.1 and 3.2

[Tim Wunder <tim at thewunders dot org>]

Hi,
I'm getting Bootstrap comparison failure when trying to compile 
gcc-3.1.1 and gcc-3.2. I've checked the archives and there are some 
messages regarding this problem with an HP-UX system, but that doesn;t 
seem to apply to me.

I'm starting with a base install of Caldera eWorkstation 3.1 with an 
updated kerenel (2.4.18). I've managed to compile and install 
glibc-2.2.5 and gcc-2.95.3, but I keep getting atexit errors (these 
errors started with an update of glibc to 2.2.4 via rpm -- which led to 
my update to glibc-2.2.5) when trying to compile xfree86 4.2.1 and 
kdemultimedia from cvs. There may be other programs that I can't 
compile, but I know that xfree86 4.2.1 and kdemultimedia don't work.

Anyway... at the end of the compile process, I get the following:
Bootstrap comparison failure!
c-common.o differs
cfgrtl.o differs
emit-rtl.o differs
function.o differs
gcc.o differs
gcse.o differs
predict.o differs
recog.o differs
regclass.o differs
reload.o differs
reload1.o differs
cp/repo.o differs
make[1]: *** [compare] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/data/Source_files/gcc/gcc-build311/gcc'
make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2

Within the log, I find this, which seems troubling to me, but I'm quite 
the neopyhte with regard to the inner workings of gcc, so I don't know 
if this is normal:

If helpful, I can supply the entire 'make bootstrap' compile log as a 
gzipped tar file.

Many thanks,
