Seems so, since debug version of llc.exe builds smoothly. Do you have
more information about this issue?

Anton,

It was about a year ago now so I cannot remember the precise details.

I traced the code its easy enough to find the error message in the bfd code.

It was about three of the source units causing the error.

Either GCC is producing erronous object modules or the bfd is miss reading 
the data in them.

Sorry I cannot really be of much help,

Aaron
