RE: non-constant expression in ".if" statement

[Nick Marcantonio <nmarcantonio at VCI dot com>]

After some searching, I discovered that this problem was a result of using
gcc 3.3. I went ahead and built gcc 3.2.3, recompiled, discovered another
issue that required binutils to be updated, so I compiled binutils 2.14, and
rebuilt glibc 2.3.2. Glibc built correctly, but a 'make install' failed
because of the following:

ld-linux.so.2: version GLIBC_2.2 not found
ld-linux.so.2: version GLIBC_2.1.1 not found
ld-linux.so.2: version GLIBC_2.2.3 not found

Now all executables (ls, make, which, etc) fail for the same reason. Is
there any possible way to recover from this? Thanks in advance. 

Regards,

I'm trying to compile glibc-2.3.1 (although I saw the same error with
glibc-2.3.2) and get the following error:

-D_LIBC_REENTRANT -include ../include/libc-symbols.h    -o
/src/glibc-build/signal/sigsuspend.o
/tmp/ccvnLnYn.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccvnLnYn.s.138: Error: non-constant expression in ".if" statement
/tmp/ccvnLnYn.s.139: Error: non-constant expression in ".if" statement
/tmp/ccvnLnYn.s.142: Error: non-constant expression in ".if" statement
make[2]: ***[/src/glibc-build/signal/sigsuspend.o] Error 1

Prior to running 'make' I did a configure --enable-add-ons with only the
linuxthreads add on. 

Is there something that I am missing? Thanks in advance!
