The last week of May (27 and 28th) there was a brief thread on using qemu with gcc-4.2 for those of us using CURRENT. There didn't seem to be any clear resolution. I'm wondering what other CURRENT users are doing. After upgrading CURRENT to gcc 4.2 qemu locks up my machine (which might, of course, be one of those "Just you" problems. No cores, just that freezes--I can ping it from another machine, but ssh, among other things, stops responding and I have to reboot with the machine's reset button. Looking at the thread I mentioned above at http://docs.freebsd.org/mail/archive/2007/freebsd-emulation/20070603.freebsd-emulation.html it doesn't seem that anything was really resolved. I can do a portupgrade -f of qemu (I'm using devel, but had the same problem with qemu itself) and even if I add disable-gcc-check I get the same problem that Eric had, a message that qemu should be built with gcc-3.x and a failure. If I leave the rest of the Makefile alone, including the USE_GCC= 3.4, it will simply pull in and install gcc-3.4. The failure I mention above only happens if I comment out the USE_GCC line. Is this what most people running CURRENT are doing, just reinstalling and letting it install gcc-3.4? Just to clarify, if I leave the Makefile alone, it will build successfully, using gcc-3.4, so my issue is probably a bit different than Eric's. I only duplicate his error if I comment out the USE_GCC= 3.4 line in the Makefile. So my question, at present, is more along the lines of "What is everyone else who runs CURRENT doing?" (I don't think Juergen runs CURRENT, actually). I was hoping to set up a test box with CURRENT to help troubleshoot if I could, but I've run out of time this weekend, and suspect I won't have time this week.) -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Cordelia: I guess you should know since you helped raise that demon that killed that guy that time.
