Hi
A while back patched gcc-4.1.2 with gcc-4.1.5f.diff and built c,pascal compilers. Recently discovered the patched version of gcc has a bug that the unpatched version does not have.
Attempting to build gcc with the patched gcc:
[...] stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/ -B/usr/local/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ -c -O2 -g -fomit-frame-pointer -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -pedantic -Wno-long-long -Wno-variadic-macros -Wold-style-definition -Wmissing-format-attribute -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../../gcc-4.1.2/gcc -I../../gcc-4.1.2/gcc/. -I../../gcc-4.1.2/gcc/../include -I../../gcc-4.1.2/gcc/../libcpp/include ../../gcc-4.1.2/gcc/c-common.c -o c-common.o ../../gcc-4.1.2/gcc/c-common.c: In function 'c_common_nodes_and_builtins': ../../gcc-4.1.2/gcc/c-common.c:2954: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate.

Turns out the problem was a hardware problem. There was an acculumation of dirt between the cpu fan and the heatsink which slightly reduced the air flow and allowed the cpu to overheat on cpu intensive programs.
My fault. I appologize.
