Hi all
I am wondering if there is any likelihood of the linux-devtools port being
upgraded to a newer gcc toolchain anytime soon? The gcc there is 3.2 which
is getting a little long in the tooth and is breaking on some C++ code that
works fine on FreeBSD 64 native (3.4 & 4.1), Mac OS X (3.3 & 4.0) and mingw
(3.4.*). It is either barfing during the build:
/compat/linux/usr/lib/libstdc++.a(eh_throw.o): In function `__cxa_rethrow':
../../../../libstdc++-v3/libsupc++/eh_throw.cc:49: undefined reference to
`_Unwind_Resume_or_Rethrow'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
*** Error code 1
Or segfaulting at runtime.
If a newer linux_devtools port is not likely, what are the possibilities for
us to build one from source in /linux/compat/ or maybe install one from rpm,
tarball, apt-get or whatever? We have limited success with these ideas
(have got a gcc 3.3.2 sort of working from a linux binary rpm) so would
appreciate relevant tips or warnings from those that know.
Thanks in advance
Michael
