I just went through the process of building GCC 3.4.0 with D support on my OSX 10.3.4 system. Building and installing gdc, et al, went without a hitch, but when I tried to compile Phobos here is what I get:

| gdc -o gcc/configunix.o -O2 -g -frelease  -nostdinc -I ../../gcc-3.4.0/gcc/d/phobos -I ../../gcc-3.4.0/gcc/d/phobos/internal/gc -c gcc/configunix.d
| gcc/configunix.d:0: internal compiler error: Bus error
| Please submit a full bug report,

Here is the version information:

| % gcc -v
| Reading specs from /usr/local/gcc-3.4/lib/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin7.4.0/3.4.0/specs
| Configured with: ../gcc-3.4.0/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-3.4 --enable-languages=c,d,c++
| Thread model: posix
| gcc version 3.4.0

GCC is the 3.4.0 release and I used the 20040427 (version r1f iirc) version of gdc to patch and build.

Any help is appreciated ...

Hi Misha,

I'm really new to os x (I'm coming from Windows)... can you please post here what you have done for building and installing it? the configure options and so on?

Thanks in advance!

Absolutely, sorry I forgot to include those in my original post. Here's how I ran configure, this was run in $objdir of course:

| $srcdir/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-3.4 --enable-languages=c,d,c++

I then basically did these steps:

| make bootstrap
| sudo make install
| PATH=/usr/local/gcc-3.4/bin:$PATH
| make clean
| mkdir phobos
| cd phobos
| DFLAGS="-O2 -g -frelease" $srcdir/gcc/d/phobos/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-3.4
| make

And that's where I got the aforementioned error, I'll include it here just to be complete:

| gdc -o gcc/configunix.o -O2 -g -frelease  -nostdinc -I ../../gcc-3.4.0/gcc/d/phobos -I ../../gcc-3.4.0/gcc/d/phobos/internal/gc -c gcc/configunix.d
| gcc/configunix.d:0: internal compiler error: Bus error
| Please submit a full bug report,

Now. I've realized that I actually did _not_ untar the java module into the gcc directory building, so that's what I'm trying to fix first. Can anyone confirm that this the above error is what I would see if the Java module was not available when gdc was built? The make for gdc did not emit any errors that I remember seeing, I would've expected to see that.

Unfortunately my make of gcc with the java language enabled has died so once I'll sort that out and get a result I'll post back here.

Thanks for any help you can offer. :]

Ok... I've the very same error.

I've done the build process WITH the java module untarred... but nothing  changed. So it must be something else...

I finally completed the build of GDC with the Java module untarred, etc ... lo-and-behold, Phobos has compiled and my Hello World compiles and runs just fine. This is an odd turn-around indeed. Is it possible you missed anything like I did?

I've redone the process and nothing has changed... same bus error.

I've used the same configure parameters and flags you have posted above...

Suggestions are really appreciated, osx folks!

A *pedantic* sequence of commands, from the downloads of the source to the conpilation ends would be a good point to find out what I'm doing wrong...

I've been trying to do just this, re-do all the steps that got me
a working gdc, but I'm running into the very same problem! I haven't
gotten to the bottom of it, unfortunately my poor little PowerBook G4
1.25 isn't quite up to the task of compiling and re-compiling GCC over and
over. Well, it can do it, but it's just not fast. :-/

I'll keep at it and let you know what I come up with. *sigh*
