From: John Polstra To: alpha@freebsd.org Subject: Heads up: Problems with the new start-up files Sender: owner-freebsd-alpha@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org With the new crti/crtbegin/crtend/crtn stuff I am seeing problems with some components. Both cc1plus and gdb get segmentation violations immediately on invocation. Note that this did not show up in my make buildworld. That completed fine, but now these two components (at least) are hosed. A working cc1plus is needed early in the buildworld process to make gperf, so this could be a bit difficult to recover from. I'd advise folks to avoid making world on the alpha until David has figured out what's wrong and committed the fixes. He's aware of the problem and is working on it, so please don't nag him.
