I got the sources over there, but I'm having problems with the build. I already re-installed the includes, install, and make. The problem is that a "make world" will abort with a coredump from cc1 before it completes. Right now, I'm getting them in lib-tools. I suspect a memory parity problem, but I don't think the customer is going to install parity memory on the box. Since a "make world" just won't complete without problems, is there any other way I can go? If I just "make all" until everything is done, and then "make install" is there a decent chance I'll be OK? How about (virtual) "make all install clean all install"? I suspect I'll also need to rebuild a kernel before I reboot, too. I won't bitch about the current "make" system because I don't have anything better to suggest right now. H
