[gentoo-dev] toolchain.eclass and gcc 4.1 snapshots

[Simon Strandman <simon.strandman@telia.com>]

It seems like toolchain.eclass does something wrong when configuring gcc 
4.1 snapshots. I decided to try gcc 4.1 on my server so I created a 
gcc-4.1.1.20060324 ebuild and defined the SNAPSHOT variable in it 
(current cvs has a lot of bugfixes since the release). This is the way 
I've done it with gcc 4.0 and I never had any problems then. The ebuild 
emerges without problems but it installs files in both 
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1-20060324 and 
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1. So when I try to emerge anything 
it always fails with errors like this:

configure:2239: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -O2 -march=pentium3 -pipe 
-fomit-frame-pointer -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=1   conftest.c  >&5
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: 
cannot find -lgcc_s
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Just copying over the files from one dir to the other and then 
symlinking it works around the problems. Any ideas?
