1 Hi,
2
3 I have a rather old server which I still keep alive (u never
4 know if it's needed again), so I update all packages about
5 once a month with
6
7 emerge -aNDuv --keep-going --backtrack=999 --with-bdeps=y @world
8
9 which works fine - until now. I can't upgrade gcc from 11.2.1
10 to 11.3.0 because of
11
12 make[3]: Entering directory '/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-11.3.0/work/build/gcc'
13 build/genautomata /var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-11.3.0/work/gcc-11.3.0/gcc/common.md /var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-11.3.0/work/gcc-11.3.0/gcc/config/i386/i386.md \
14 insn-conditions.md > tmp-automata.c
15 make[3]: *** [Makefile:2456: s-automata] Error 139
16 make[3]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-11.3.0/work/build/gcc'
17 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
18
19 and dmesg says
20
21 [ 1297.247619] genautomata[3301]: segfault at bfea1ffc ip b76bb23b sp bfea2000 error 6 in genautomata[b76b1000+44000]

23 Granted, it is still kernel 4.0.5, but I don't want to go through
24 the trouble of installing a new kernel on the old system. But the
25 old kernel is the only thing I can think of that could be causing
26 the problem...?!
27
28 Possibly there was a discussion about this, in the year 2008:
29 https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2008-November/251389.html
30 but I don't understand what's it all about, and how could I modify
31 emerge to work around the problem.
32
33 gcc is the only package which won't upgrade - everything else works
34 fine (including glibc 2.34-r13 and all the other stuff).
35
36 Any hints?
37
38 Thanks,
