Tom, I have deleted my source tree, untarred it again from the bzipped source and could compile it last night more than 100 times without any serious errors. I put a date command in front of each run. The stderr output get from each run looks like this: Mon Dez 15 03:32:40 CET 2003 - start make distclean/configure/make make[3]: buildfile: Kommando nicht gefunden make[3]: [distclean] Fehler 127 (ignoriert) mkdir man7 In file included from preproc.y:6286: pgc.c: In function `yylex': pgc.c:1386: Warnung: label `find_rule' defined but not used preproc.y: At top level: pgc.c:3367: Warnung: `yy_flex_realloc' defined but not used Mon Dez 15 03:35:08 CET 2003 - end make distclean/configure/make Here are versions of my packages (some from http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/ ) gcc (GCC) 3.3.2 20031022 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.2-1) libgcc-3.3.2-1 bash-2.05b-31 make-3.80-4.rhfc1.at automake-1.7.9-0_17.rhfc1.at gawk-3.1.3-3 sed-4.0.8-1 It seems that I have become unable to reproduce the error... regards --Marcel >>> Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us> 12.12.2003 >>> Peter Eisentraut <peter_e@gmx.net> writes: > I tried that and various combinations of switches and environments but > could not reproduce this. I find it striking that both complainants reported that the issue went away on a fresh build attempt. This seems to suggest that even on configurations that can produce the problem, it only happens one time in N, where we have little idea how large N is. Marcel, could you try just doing "make distclean, configure, make" ten or a hundred times overnight, and see if you get more failures? regards, tom lane
