GCC 3.4, right? There are a couple of tests that cause GCC 3.4 to hang indefinitely.
Close enough 3.3.5 from memory. Time to upgrade from the default distribution installation I guess.
I don't (often) test with 3.3 but I think I've seen that doing the same on those problem tests. I haven't figured out what goes wrong, but it's OK with GCC 4.x so upgrading would work. I run the tests with a limit of 5 mins so any compile or test that takes longer than that gets killed - without a limit testing GCC 3.4 never completed. jon -- "It is always the best policy to tell the truth, unless, of course, you are an exceptionally good liar." - Jerome K.
