[Qemu-devel] Error during compilation

[Peter Federighi]

Hello.

I recently downloaded Qemu to try it out.  My attempt to compile it ended
up producing the following error:

--- BEGIN OUTPUT ---

gcc -Wall -O2 -g -fno-strict-aliasing -fomit-frame-pointer -I.
-I/usr/src/qemu-0.6.1/target-i386 -I/usr/src/qemu-0.6.1 -D_GNU_SOURCE

                (lshiftrt:DI (reg/v:DI 59 [ val ])
                    (subreg:QI (reg:SI 0 ax [193]) 0)))
            (clobber (scratch:SI))
            (clobber (reg:CC 17 flags))
        ]) 306 {lshrdi3_1} (insn_list 314 (nil))

        (expr_list:REG_UNUSED (reg:CC 17 flags)
            (expr_list:REG_UNUSED (scratch:SI)
                (nil)))))
/usr/src/qemu-0.6.1/softmmu_template.h:223: confused by earlier errors,
bailing out
make[1]: *** [helper.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/qemu-0.6.1/i386'
make: *** [all] Error 1

--- END OUTPUT ---

Normally, I would include a solution to the error, but I have never seen
an error like this and don't really know what to do.  I get the same
problem when trying to compile the latest snapshot as well.  I hope that
this information is useful.

In case it matters, I have the following versions of software:
Linux           2.6.10
GCC             3.4.3
BinUtils        2.13.1
GLibc           2.3.2
GNU Make        3.80

Thank you for your time and effort on Qemu.
