[gnu.gcc.bug] Fatal signal from cc1

keffer@SPERM.OCEAN.WASHINGTON.EDU (Tom Keffer) (03/29/89)

Folks,
	I have been using the gcc compiler for several weeks now and
frequently got the error "Program cc1 got fatal signal 6." from it.  I
couldn't correlate it with anything.  As a precaution, I decided to
completely remake the compiler, this time including the "stage2"
compile.  Everything went fine through stage1.  When I ran stage2,
this is what I got:

--------------------------------------------------------------

sperm[gcc]% make CC=stage2/gcc CFLAGS="-g -O -Bstage2/"
stage2/gcc -g -O -Bstage2/ -c -DSTANDARD_EXEC_PREFIX=\"/usr/local/lib/gcc-\" gcc.c
stage2/gcc: Program cc1 got fatal signal 6.
*** Error code 1

Stop.

--------------------------------------------------------------

The facts:

Sun 3/260 with fpa, running SunOS 3.5.  <--- NOTE!  NOT 4.0!
GNU CC version 1.34

I had run the standard litany before: 

	config.gcc sun3-fpa
	make
	make stage1
	make CC=stage1/gcc CFLAGS="-g -O -Bstage1/"
	make stage2
then the fatal
	make CC=stage2/gcc CFLAGS="-g -O -Bstage2/"

This happened to me as well on a Sun 3/160 with fpa SunOS3.5. This was on
my first attempt to build gcc-1.34. I wasn't aware that the stage1 binaries
would work. Any fix for this would be appreciated muchly!
