The original question was:

|We have a new SS10/51 running Solaris 1.1 and have experienced really

|strange problem. For example, while compling gcc-2.4.5, we have random

|errors such as:

|

|% make LANGUAGES=c

|

|(staff deleted)

|

|cc -c -DIN_GCC -g -I. -I. -I./config c-typeck.c

|"c-typeck.c", line 2137: compiler error: got signal 11

|*** Error code 1

|make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `c-typeck.o'

|

|The odding thing is that if I try to run the exact identical command,

|I will succeed to compile:

|

|% make LANGUAGES=c

|cc -c -DIN_GCC -g -I. -I. -I./config c-typeck.c

|cc -c -DIN_GCC -g -I. -I. -I./config c-convert.c

|cc -c -DIN_GCC -g -I. -I. -I./config c-aux-info.c

|

|The file causing compiler errors looks different in timing. Making

|gcc-2.4.5 from the same source files is no problem on SS10/30 running

|Solaris 1.1.

|

|Any idea?

Most people suggested that I may have run out system resources (temp

file, virtual memory...). But the real problem was the hardware, not

the software.

Last week tech people replaced the mother board with a new one which

has 30MHz Sparc chip (i.e. SS10/30 mother board). After that the

problem has gone. They said that the 50MHz SuperSparc chip is not very

stable, and now we are waiting for a revised SuperSparc chip.
