Re: i386-pc-solaris2.5.1: recent snapshots can't build emacs-20.2


I regret that I haven't had time to work on this.
However, I did just confirm that the problem still exists with
this snapshot of the 1.1 branch from yesterday:

  Reading specs from /p/p/egcs-980815-08h49/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-solaris2.5.1/egcs-2.91.53/specs
  gcc version egcs-2.91.53 19980815 (gcc2 ss-980609 experimental)

I did try to build a few `cvs update -D DATE'-selected
versions of egcs, but none of them bootstrapped.  What version
of CVS is running on Cygnus' egcs repository?

| |    I'm pretty sure that whatever it is about egcs that provokes
| |    this was introduced in the first two weeks of June.  The 980531
| |    snapshot compiled it fine, and the first time I noticed the problem
| |    was about two weeks later.
| |
| | Thanks for the further datapoints.
| |
| | I am still convinced that something is going wrong with unexec when
| | compiled with egcs.  The evidence in your crash indicates this to me.
| |
| | I ask for one further experiment if you don't mind.  Can you try
| | compiling just unexelf.o with a working gcc, leave the rest the same
| | (compiled with egcs which causes the crashes) and tell me the results.
| |
| | Also, it would be very useful if you could take the crashing emacs
| | binary and run it under gdb, and look around for clues as to where it
| | is crashing.  I would not be surprised if you find it crashed
| | somewhere in the middle of the solaris dynamic linker, or some place
| | similar.
|
| I compiled unexelf.c using gcc-2.7.2.2 (with which I can build
| a working emacs-20.2), and tried to rebuild.  Still to no avail.
