As belt and braces I upped my CPU fan speed and started compiling.

Pentium III (Intel)

CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
Started compiling, three hours later - compiler crash !

I changed -o3 to -o2. Its been running for 24Hrs without a glitch.

Although this seems to have solved the problem I'm unsure why the 
compiler could not handle -o3. I have PIII 700Mhz (coppermine) 
256MB, 40GB Partition with DMA enabled.

Any comments ?

I've got gentoo on an P3 933Mhz/512MB/[EMAIL PROTECTED] completly 
compiled with the
flags you got from freehackers with -O3 - the compiler never crashed 
for me. I'm
@~x86. Maybe you should run some memtest86's...



OK tracked dowm memtest86 - am going to run it overnight

Have now run memtest86 for 12 Hours straight - extended test. Zero 
errors ... mmm ...
I'll limp along with -O2 for now ... sort the rest of Gentoo then come 
back to it.

If the memory is intact, it's most probably a gcc bug. If it persists in 
a more recent version, you
should file a bug report to http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/ (if it's not 
already listed).
