Failing to build jade on Mandrake 7.0

["richard offer" <offer at sgi dot com>]

Hi,

Upto now I've been running DocBook on my local machine (Redhat 6.1/6.2) and it
builds and runs excellently.

But now I have to move everything across to our group's main build server as I
get ready for pushing my project out to a wider audience, and the server runs
Mandrake 7.0 (no, don't ask). To allow for flexibilty, I'm packaing up my
docbook CVS tree into a SRPM for building on the server. (I need to build it
from scratch as I've had to make changes to the texmf.cnf file to increase the
sizes by a lot.)

I'm hitting the same bug that Scott Bambrough saw in a posting on Dec 21,
namely

This is a compiler issue, Redhat runs egcs-1.1.2, but Mandrake uses gcc-2.95,
and my C++ is lousy enough that I'm not sure I can diagnose it in a reasonable
timeframe. I doubt I can get the server changed without a better case than
docbook wont build ("So, don't use it then". "Ahhh!" ).



Anybody got any suggestions/fixes ?
