Build failed as indicated here.

If we look at the tail of pg.mod, we see the following.

build: gm2-4.1.2=> cat -n gcc/gm2/gm2-auto/pg.mod |tail
  5459     follow := GetFollow(f^.followinfo) ;
  5460     IF IntersectionIsNil(first, follow)
  5461     THEN
  5462        DisposeSetDesc(first) ;
  5463        DisposeSetDesc(follow) ;
  5464        RETURN( FALSE )
  5465     ELSE
  5466        PrettyCommentFactor(f, 3) ;
  5467        NewLine(3) ;
  5468        WriteString('first: ') ;
  5469       build: gm2-4.1.2=> cat -n gcc/gm2/gm2-auto/pg.mod |tail -10
  5459     follow := GetFollow(f^.followinfo) ;
  5460     IF IntersectionIsNil(first, follow)
  5461     THEN
  5462        DisposeSetDesc(first) ;
  5463        DisposeSetDesc(follow) ;
  5464        RETURN( FALSE )
  5465     ELSE
  5466        PrettyCommentFactor(f, 3) ;
  5467        NewLine(3) ;
  5468        WriteString('first: ') ;
  5469

This on Solaris 10/sparc but I suspect the problem to be generic.
