Re: gcc3.3: problem compiling elf/soinit.c (int. compiler error)

Internal compiler errors are always gcc bugs, even if they're triggered
by bad code.  The best I can suggest is that despite the good reasons to
run those particular version, you should at least run the most recent of
the gcc 3.3 series.  Glibc exercises the compiler pretty heavily.

Also, there's a number of distros that are either supporting x86_64, or
about to support that version.  You may want to check their trees to see
if they have custom patches for things like that.  It's pretty unlikely
for basic compilation - things like this just usually mean your
toolchain is broken.

Tks,
