Thanks for your reply.

Regarding

"
FAIL: g++.old-deja/g++.law/weak.C (test for excess errors)

Unknown and you should look into g++.log.
"

- you probably meant gcc/testsuite/g++/g++.log.sent file.

If it's the case, here's what I've found:

"
FAIL: g++.old-deja/g++.law/weak.C (test for excess errors)
Excess errors:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lm
".

I think that the missing library is

/usr/lib/libm.so

which is present on my system. Is it so that 'gcc' test process doesn't
look for libraries in standard places ?

And if youy remember by heart, where can I downlaod sources of 'libm' from ?

Regarding 'glibc' - what is the best compatible with gcc-4.1.1 version ?

And why the number of failure so drastically differs between gcc-4.1.1 and
gcc-3.6.4 ?  'glibc' is the same in both cases.

Regarding 'glibc' - what is the best compatible with gcc-4.1.1 ?

Is there a 'glibc' version which is good for both gcc-3.4.6 and gcc-4.1.1 ?

If not, what is the best compatible with gcc-3.4.6 ?

Based on your answers I'll try to build 'glibc' myself - if necessary, it will
be two different versions for gcc-3.4.6 and gcc-4.1.1.
