I just use ../gcc/configure most of the time. I have libunwind 0.98
installed, but then you likely have it or a more recent version
installed also.
You are configuring in the source directory? That is supposed to work,
but no gcc developers ever do that, so it is often broken. Usually this
gives some kind of obvious build failure though. It seems unlikely that
this would result in an infinite loop in the compiler. FYI The
preferred way to build gcc is something like
mkdir objdir
cd objdir
../gcc/configure ...
I don't know when I last ran apt-get. I can try updating and doing
another build. Also, I have debian/unstable on an alternate partition.
I can try booting it, running apt-get, and trying a build there, in case
it is debian/unstable specific.
Right now, I am testing the patch for 13158. I need to wait for this to
finish first.
