Package: gcc-3.4
Version: 3.4.3-13
Severity: important
Justification: fails to build from source

Hi, 
This is probably not the _cause_ of the problem
but here is what is happening on my system.

I used gcc-3.3 initially to compile the latest
2.6.11 kernel image (installed from deb package)

gcc-3.3 randomly segfaulted.all the time, while 
compiling. reportbug told me that this was fixed
in gcc-3.4 . after installing 3.4 and pointing
/usr/bin/gcc to it i recompiled. but someway 
in the middle it just stopped. i tried to bg
it and kill the process and try again but then
i got it into a bizarre state. a killall -TERM make
just hung there. a killall -9 make hung[???]

even worse opening another console and trying 
ps auwwx just hangs. 

my initial doubt was it was a disk issue
as _another_ disk but same system has caused problems
but i cant find _any_ messages in /var/log/messages
whatsoever.  

sorry if this is not related to gcc-3.4 but is a more
general issue. 

thanks

most likely this is caused by bad memory. please try to reproduce this
behaviour on another computer.

don't do that, but set the appropriate enironment variables to use
another compiler: CC=gcc-3.4 (and I think HOSTCC=gcc-3.4)

I don't see anything gcc specific.
