Hey everyone,

I've been asking in channel for some help on this but I think I'm kind of stuck here and I've been told that this mailing list potentially reaches a lot more people. I've been trying to build gcc for armv6hl which is a new arch for it and of course I'm running into errors that are a bit above my head. I'm really confused because make or configure seems to be exiting without a meaningful error (at least not to me). Check out this pastebin of the rpmbuild (first 500 lines and last 500 lines): http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=NMfJPkbk

It seems to run these commands: 

libtool: link: ranlib .libs/libgfortran.a
libtool: link: ( cd ".libs" && rm -f "libgfortran.la" && ln -s "../libgfortran.la" "libgfortran.la" )
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/rpmbuild/BUILD/gcc-4.7.0-20120507/obj-armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/libgfortran'
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/rpmbuild/BUILD/gcc-4.7.0-20120507/obj-armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/libgfortran'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/rpmbuild/BUILD/gcc-4.7.0-20120507/obj-armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi'
make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2

But there's no like specific error and I don't believe the commands failed because if I do a directory listing for those libraries: 

# ls -l /root/rpmbuild/BUILD/gcc-4.7.0-20120507/obj-armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/libgfortran/.libs/*lib*.la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Sep 10 18:33 /root/rpmbuild/BUILD/gcc-4.7.0-20120507/obj-armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/libgfortran/.libs/libcaf_single.la -> ../libcaf_single.la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Sep 10 18:33 /root/rpmbuild/BUILD/gcc-4.7.0-20120507/obj-armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/libgfortran/.libs/libgfortranbegin.la -> ../libgfortranbegin.la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Sep 10 18:33 /root/rpmbuild/BUILD/gcc-4.7.0-20120507/obj-armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/armv6hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi/libgfortran/.libs/libgfortran.la -> ../libgfortran.la

You can see that the commands above the "make error" succeeded as the symbolic links and libraries exist...
I'm fairly confused on what to do and it sucks because I have to wait basically 130 minutes for this error to come up so ya :)
If there's anyone out there who could help or maybe even just point me in another direction or possibly recommend someone else who is more knowledgeable then that would be great!

Thanks in advanced,

Jon Chiappetta
