Hi,
I tried the gcc-3.3-branch.

Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.3.1/specs
Configured with: /home/ishikawa/PACKAGES/gcc-3.3-cvs/gcc/configure
--enable-languages=c --program-suffix=-3.3-branch : (reconfigured)
/home/ishikawa/PACKAGES/gcc-3.3-cvs/gcc/configure --enable-languages=c
--program-suffix=-3.3-branch : (reconfigured)
/home/ishikawa/PACKAGES/gcc-3.3-cvs/gcc/configure --enable-languages=c
--program-suffix=-3.3-branch : (reconfigured)
/home/ishikawa/PACKAGES/gcc-3.3-cvs/gcc/configure --enable-languages=c
--program-suffix=-3.3-branch
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.3.1 20030701 (prerelease)

But still no go.

(gdb) quit
The program is running.  Exit anyway? (y or n) y

Again, the program seems to detect internal
problem and calls kill-emacs (Fkill_emacs) itself
and then somehow the exit processing sees segmentation error.

All I can think of, from past experiences is
the gcc now breaks unexelf.c (a code to dump
program's image for subsequent loading: it has initialized
application data frozen at the moment of dump and so
the subsequent loading doesn't require initialization.
Very architecture specific, and object format specific.),
or miscompiles code somewhere, which I can't pinpoint yet.

I posted a plea for help in gnu.help.emacs and hopefully,
someone more knowledgeable than I am might be
able to figure out where the compilation broke.
