[gentoo-user] Attempting to compile (patched) Qemu

[James]

All,

I'm trying to compile a patched version of Qemu, found here:

http://alex.csgraf.de/self/?qemu/

The patched version has support for virtualizing OS X. However, when
attempting to compile, I get the following fatal error:

A Google search pointed me to this Gentoo bug:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207833

Any ideas on why this may be happening? The only thing I can think may
be causing this is that I'm compiling Qemu with gcc v4 (instead of
v3). I did, however, try the compile using gcc v3 and received another
(equally cryptic) fatal compile error. *sigh*

Thoughts? Ideas?

Thanks!

QEMU generically fails to compile with gcc4 on x86 targets. This is
well known and documented. With gcc-3.4 it also won't compile.
Allegedly it works with gcc-3.3, but I can't get that version of gcc
to build on my box....

Good luck getting it to work
