   I have been experiencing the same problem as Marc.

   In case it helps I discovered that if the following file was
   removed from the 'piclist' file (mentioned in Marc's output), I
   could complete the build and use the resulting compiler to
   successfully compile code that didn't use exceptions.

          pic/stdexcepti.o 

   I hope this helps ...

                                                 ... regards Simon ...
