           Summary: C++ support on alpha is no more
           Product: gcc
           Version: 3.3
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P1
         Component: libstdc++
        AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
        ReportedBy: mmazur at kernel dot pl
                CC: gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org
 GCC build triplet: alpha-pld-linux-gnu

While trying to compile anything (is it python or ncurses) ./configure shows me
that _Unwind_Rewind_or_Rethrow@3.3 doesn't exist (checking if the c++ compiler
is able to produce executables... no :). Unable to compile ncurses? That renders
the system completely useless. I haven't tried anything else but I assume there
would be the same problem.

Had to switch to using _Unwind_RaiseException
(libstdc++-v3/libsupc++/eh_throw.cc:100). It builds. No idea if it will work
though. Will it?
