Well, in fact it shall really call the native assembler: it's tring to
generate an executable, genmodes, to run on the build machine.

Everything I could spot looked fine to me... :-(

The gcc pass-1 build just finished, and genmodes was successfully built
and run.

From digging the binutils source code, -Qy should mostly be ignored for
compatibility with some (legacy) SVR4 stuff. Mostly, it seems it dealt
with comment sections. Bah...

What's your host? Mine is a Debian Lenny 5.0.3 with backports:

# as --version
GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.18.0.20080103
# gcc --version
gcc (Debian 4.3.2-1.1) 4.3.2
# uname -a
Linux roazhon 2.6.31.5-roazhon #1 SMP Fri Oct 23 20:17:59 CEST 2009
x86_64 GNU/Linux

Sorry, I'm out of ideas... :-(
That's all for tonight, tomorrow is a long day.
