llvm dev - Jun 2008 - [LLVMdev] Unable to build LLVM-GCC 2.3 (using x86_64 and gcc 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)

I read the README and I think I noted all the relevant pitfalls, but
something still goes wrong.  I didn't see anything similar in this
months list archives either.

On the other hand, I see the release notes do not list linux x86_64 as a
known good architecture - only linux IA32 (though MacOS X is said to be
supported on x86 in 64 bit mode).  Am I trying to do the impossible?

$ tar xvf llvm-2.3.tar.gz && \
tar xvf llvm-gcc-4.2-2.3.source.tar.gz && \
cd llvm-2.3 && \
./configure --enable-optimized && \
make -j 2 && \
cd .. && \
mkdir obj && \
cd obj && \
../llvm-gcc4.2-2.3.source/configure --program-prefix=llvm-
--enable-languages=c --enable-llvm=`pwd`/../llvm-2.3 --disable-shared
--disable-multilib && \
make -j 2

llvm succeeds, and it looks like the llvm-gcc build chokes at the start
of "stage 2"

It seems you can't compile and run C programs at all.

Maybe because you are using /home/alan/pkg/llvm/obj/./prev-gcc/xgcc instead of
the system's gcc, which might be broken.

During bootstrap stage 2 it is normal to use the just
built gcc.  I don't understand why he is having this
problem - I bootstrap llvm-gcc from time to time on
x86-64 linux.
