Hi there,
I should have looked closer at your bugreport when you first submitted it. This is indeed a bug in the assembler 'gas', so in the binutils package, that was triggered by CLN and fixed by Bruno Haible a couple of weeks ago.

It seems like binutils-2.12.1 does not fix the problem yet. Hence, you have three options: 1) Downgrade binutils to a version that has worked before 2) Wait for a new version of binutils. 3) Manually apply the following patch to gas/dwarf2dbg.c that was applied upstream by Nick Clifton nickc@cambridge.redhat.com on May 11 and build and install your own binutils: =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/src/src/gas/dwarf2dbg.c,v retrieving revision 1.46 diff -c -3 -p -w -p -r1.46 dwarf2dbg.c *** gas/dwarf2dbg.c 3 May 2002 02:25:33 -0000 1.46 --- gas/dwarf2dbg.c 11 May 2002 10:26:52 -0000 *************** dwarf2_emit_insn (size) *** 290,296 **** return; loc_directive_seen = false;
