Sorry, I just hit reply, and it went directly to you.

| Well, I still suspect you are running out of space somewhere.  The only
| place I've seen errors of the nature of the above - i.e. when you are
| receiving assembler source errors - is when you lack storage for the
| temporary files.

This is the filesystem usage:
df -h
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda2             1.9G  484M  1.4G  27% /
/dev/hda5             1.9G  216M  1.6G  12% /usr
/dev/hdb1              76G   63G  9.1G  88% /home
/dev/hdc1              76G   61G   12G  85% /data
/dev/hdg1              76G   51G   21G  72% /storage

As you can see all of the filesystems have at least 1.4 GB free
diskspace, so I doubt it is a matter of lack of space (more so, because
the error allways occurs on exactly the same file).

| I just noted in the gcc command that it's using the -pipe option, so

The machine has 1GB RAM installed about half is used and about 300MB of
swap is also free.

Anyone else? Any other clues I could follow?
