All,
I have encountered the same problem as the one reported in 9220 - fixincl
hangs on AIX 4.3.3. I therefore do not believe the problem is local as was
suggested by dje.
http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail
<http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail&database=gcc&;
pr=9220> &database=gcc&pr=9220
My solution was to go with gcc-3.2.2, instead of 3.2.1 or older.
Environment: AIX 4.3.3 Level 10; GNU make-3.79.1; native ld and as.
Description: The fixincl program appears to be hanging while fixing header
files. The fixincl process does not respond to any kill signal. It has one
or more defunct children, which cannot be killed either. Since AIX does not
have "truss", I cannot see what fixincl was hanging for. I have seen defunct
children generated by fixincl when compiling gcc on AIX 5.1.3, but that did
not hang fixincl.
This problem happens during bootstrapping. I tried two different compilers
to do bootstrap, gcc-3.2.1(for AIX 4.3.2) and gcc-3.0.1(for AIX 4.3.2); I
also tried to compile different versions of gcc, i.e. gcc-3.2.1, gcc-2.95.3.
All four combinations failed with the same problem, fixincl hangs while
fixing header files.
I have no problem compiling gcc-3.2.2 (using 3.2.1) on AIX 4.3.3 (ML10). I
was also able to compile gcc-2.95.3 (using 2.95.3) on the same platform. On
AIX 5.1.3, I was able to compile 3.2.1 and 2.95.3.
Thanks!
Frank Lei
