I'm seeing the same problem with gcc version 4.1.2 20061021 prerelease (NetBSD nb3 20061125), i.e. the system compiler on NetBSD/i386 4.0. In my case, I found out that what caused the error was not optimization, but a lack of optimization -- you'll see that the gcc invocation does not specify any -O option. After some hints from the friendly souls on #parrot, I found out a way to work around this problem: perl ./Configure.pl --gen-parrot --gen-parrot-option=--optimize in the rakudo root directory. That way, the relevant file gets compiled with optimization (together with most if not all the others...), and the build completes and produces a perl6 executable which so far is working for me (running spectests now). Yes, this is actually a gcc bug... Hope this helps, - Håvard
