The only time this function can be called if GCC was compiled with gather stats on , which should not be done for a production compiler.

It works! Just have used --disable-gather-detailed-mem-stats in configure. Though some additional patches that could be found in Manfriva CVS and linuxfromscratch.org makes the compilator much more robust and quick. Thank you very much for suggestion,

Can you attach the preprocessed testcase as this is most likely this is a bug still?

Indeed I have alredy recompile the whole suite. And bug has gone. Though if you have gcc-4.1.1 with -enable-gather-detailed-mem-stats  -- just download wxWidgets-2.7.0 or wxWidgets-2.6.3 from http://www.wxwidgets.org and try to compile with something like ./configure --enable-gui --enable-universal (the simplest pack) and you will see the bugs in ggc.h

It's 23:16 and I have to go home. I will try to reproduce the bug tomorrow morning and post the preprocessed fragment of the code here or will send it to you directly by mail (in case it will be too heavy for the post). Any way if I can help you I do.

With best regards,

Tanuki

Here's what I came up with:

(sid)518:tbm@chico: ~/tmp] cat appbase.cpp
#include "foo.h"

int bar(int x);

(sid)519:tbm@chico: ~/tmp] rm -rf .pch/
(sid)520:tbm@chico: ~/tmp] mkdir -p .pch/
(sid)521:tbm@chico: ~/tmp] touch empty.h

Please submit a full bug report,

(sid)524:tbm@chico: ~/tmp]

And when you slightly change the file you get a segfault:

(sid)526:tbm@chico: ~/tmp] cat test2.cpp
#include "foo.h"

int bar(void);

(sid)527:tbm@chico: ~/tmp] /usr/local/bin/g++ -c -I.pch -DwxUSE_BASE=1 -fPIC -O1 test2.cpp

It seems that gcc-4.2 has the same problem. At least all .pch tests fail with that option set

Confirmed, trunk, i386-pc-solaris2.11 - the gcc.log is:

/usr/share/src/gcc_trunk/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/pch/common-1.c:3: internal compiler error: in ggc_record_overhead, at ggc-common.c:873

The source in the Testsuite Directory contains an error (misnamed file) which when corrected will allow gcc to compile correctly. It is the "File Not Found" error that causes the ICE and NOT an "error in the Testsuite source" itself.
If you alter the Source to correct it then the ICE goes away.


This message suggests that this Bug still occurs on the Trunk and purports a Fix: http://readlist.com/lists/gcc.gnu.org/gcc/8/41545.html


I get this Bug on a preRelease SVN version:

If I edit a copy of common-1.c and include "common-1.hs" (instead of "common-1.h") then the ICE does not occur (so no preprocessed source included).

Perhaps more troubling is that if I run this by hand from the command line (instead of letting the Testsuite run it) then I get a "normal error" and no ICE.

So we have:

* Testsuite's gcc.log shows different output than using the command line.
* In the common-1.c File the "#include" references a file we do not have _OR_ we create the File to be included with a name differing from what the Source expects.
