FWIW, I have succesfully rebuilt (almost) all of my packages with GCC 4.1. They're from the 2.2 branch, revision 861. All were up-to-date before building, and the toolchain were first rebuilt two times, just to be sure. The exceptions are acpid which fails due to -Werror in the Makefile, and slim (hi cptn and sip :-)) which fails with this message: app.h:56: error: extra qualification 'App::' on member 'replaceVariables' app.h:79: error: extra qualification 'App::' on member 'blankScreen' (sip: Remember to include cptn's crux-smooth theme in the updated port in case this will trigger a new release ;-)) My packages are: acpid 1.0.4-1 akode 2.0-1 alsa-lib 1.0.10-1 apache 2.0.55-2 apr 0.9.7-1 arts 1.5.1-1 aterm 1.0.0-1 audiofile 0.2.6-1 autoconf 2.59-1 automake 1.9.6-1 bash 3.0-2 bc 1.06-2 bftpd 1.0.24-3 bin86 0.16.0-1 binutils 2.16.1-1 bison 2.1-1 bzip2 1.0.3-1 cdparanoia alpha9.8-3 coreutils 5.93-1 cpio 2.6-2 cyrus-sasl 2.1.21-2 db 4.4.20-1 dcron 2.3.3-10 diffutils 2.8.1-1 e2fsprogs 1.38-1 ed 0.2-2 evilwm 0.99.24-1 exim 4.60-1 expat 1.95.8-1 fakeroot 1.5.7-1 file 4.16-1 filesystem 2.2-1 findutils 4.2.27-1 flex 2.5.31-2 fontconfig 2.3.2-1 freeglut 2.4.0-1 freetype 2.1.10-1 fribidi 0.10.7-1 gamin 0.1.7-1 gawk 3.1.5-1 gcc 4.1.0-1 gdbm 1.8.3-1 gettext 0.14.5-1 ghostscript 8.15.1-1 glib 2.8.6-1 glibc 2.3.6-1 gnupg 1.4.2.1-1 gpgme 1.0.3-1 grep 2.5.1a-1 groff 1.19.2-5 grub 0.95-3 gzip 1.2.4b-1 hicolor-icon-theme 0.9-1 hotplug-ng 002-1 imagemagick 6.2.6-2 kbd 1.12-1 kdeartwork 3.5.1-1 kdebase 3.5.1-1 kdelibs 3.5.1-2 kdepim 3.5.1-1 kdeutils 3.5.1-1 ktorrent 1.2-2 lame 3.96.1-1 lcms 1.14-1 less 394-1 lfpfonts-fix 0.83-1 libart_lgpl 2.3.17-1 libgpg-error 1.1-1 libidn 0.5.20-1 libjpeg 6b-1 libmad 0.15.1b-3 libmng 1.0.9-2 libogg 1.1.3-1 libpcre 6.6-2 libpng 1.2.8-1 libtiff 3.8.0-1 libtool 1.5.22-1 libungif 4.1.4-1 libusb 0.1.11-1 libvorbis 1.1.2-1 libxml2 2.6.23-1 libxslt 1.1.15-1 linux 2.6.16-rc5-1 lipstik 2.1-1 lm_sensors 2.9.2-1 m4 1.4.4-1 make 3.80-1 man 1.6c-1 man-pages 2.22-1 memtest86+ 1.65-1 mktemp 1.5-1 module-init-tools 3.2.2-1 nasm 0.98.39-1 ncurses 5.5-1 neon 0.25.4-1 net-tools 1.60-5 netkit-base 0.17-8 openssh 4.3p2-1 openssl 0.9.8a-1 patch 2.5.4-1 pciutils 2.2.1-2 perl 5.8.8-1 pkg-config 0.20-1 pkgutils 5.20-1 polyester 0.8-1 poppler 0.4.4-1 ports 1.5-2 portspage 1.0.3-2 procps 3.2.6-1 prt-get 0.5.11-2 prt-utils 0.7.1-1 psmisc 22.1-1 python 2.4.2-2 qt3 3.3.5-1 rc 2.17-2 readline 5.1-1 rsync 2.6.6-2 ruby 1.8.4-1 sed 4.1.5-1 shadow 4.0.14-1 slim 1.2.4-1 subversion 1.3.0-1 sudo 1.6.8p12-1 sysfsutils 2.0.0-1 sysklogd 1.4.1-5 sysvinit 2.86-5 tar 1.15.1-2 tcp_wrappers 7.6-6 tcsh 6.14-1 time 1.7-1 udev 085-1 unrar 3.5.4-1 unzip 5.52-2 uptimed 0.3.7-1 usbutils 0.70-1 util-linux 2.12r-1 vim 6.4-2 webfs 1.21-2 wget 1.10.2-1 which 2.16-1 x11 6.9.0-1 zip 2.31-2 zlib 1.2.3-1 And the relevant parts of "svn st | grep -v .footprint": M crux-2.2/ports/opt/cyrus-sasl/Pkgfile A crux-2.2/ports/opt/cyrus-sasl/cyrus-sasl-2.1.21-gcc4-fix.patch M crux-2.2/ports/opt/cyrus-sasl/.md5sum I bugged that one in trac and attached the one-line patch, also applies to 4.0. M crux-2.2/ports/opt/libpng/Pkgfile I had to switch to using makefile.linux over makefile.gcmmx, otherwise x11 would refuse to link xcursorgen against it with a bunch of undefined references to what looks like MMX related code. slim (built with gcc 4.0) would also refuse to start with the gcc 4.1 compiled libpng using makefile.gcmmx, but works when using makefile.linux.

With my imagination probably being the primary factor, my KDE desktop and pkgmk (well, gcc) feels a little speedier now. And given the popularity Han's ProPolice-enabled gcc apparently used to have, it seems 4.1 would be loved by the paranoid people concerned about theoratical security issues, too! (That ought to put me back on his ignore list :-)) Of course 4.0 is safer given its life time - this is just to report my experience with 4.1 so far, which is much better than I expected to.

Thanks for your report (slim is fixed in svn :-)).

However, from your report (and the ChangeLog for 4.1) updating between releases sounds quite feasible, so if we manage to get out 2.2 soon, I'd prefer to keep 4.0.x, and update to 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 through ports once they're available.

Fedora Core 5 (which will be released in a couple of days) will ship with both gcc 4.1 and glibc 2.4 (which by the way have run flawlessly for three days now) so when patching is needed there's a good chance finding them in their CVS. I completely agree with your general view on .0's and also that 4.0.x is the best bet for 2.2. 4.0.3 is out now, btw. :-)

That sounds perfect!

Indeed, and they have a big team of guys working on getting all the applications patched. That's all great work. But if we want to get all those packages patched and tested we'd have to spend hours a day. Better wait a bit until all patches are applied in concurrent releases of packages and we can painlessly upgrade. Also take a look at the real advantage of upgrading to the latest release of gcc. What is it? What's wrong with gcc-3.4.5? # Han -- http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanb/software/crux/

I agree.

http://kerneltrap.org/node/6271 4.0.2 is already in the 2.2 branch, so you have to compare the 4.1 jump relative to that.

I know - it wasn't intended as a "Fedora rocks" message (because they're insanely bleeding edge), only as a "if we run into problems, we won't be alone and there's a good chance to find patches in their CVS" - unless it's an mp3 related packages, obviously ;-)

Hi Mark,
FWIW, I have succesfully rebuilt (almost) all of my packages with GCC 4.1. They're from the 2.2 branch, revision 861. All were up-to-date before building, and the toolchain were first rebuilt two times, just to be sure. ... However, from your report (and the ChangeLog for 4.1) updating between releases sounds quite feasible, so if we manage to get out 2.2 soon, I'd prefer to keep 4.0.x, and update to 4.1.1 or 4.1.2

That sounds perfect!
Except one thing: any "cruxer's complete guide on the rigth way of rebuilding toolchain" ? Any sort of double-compilation sounds heretic )) Yes, I think this is very important. Am I paranoid? -- Mikhail Kolesnik ICQ: #260259143 IRC: freenode/mike_k, rusnet/mike_k NIC handle: MKK83-UANIC

Look at the bootstrap target of the Makefile :-) In general when updating gcc for micro versions, it's enough to simply rebuild libtool. It's only if the ABI breaks it's necessary to rebuild your whole toolchain or even system.

If you want to follow the book you'll have to jump down to single user mode, but these days it usually isn't that big of an issue and should IMO only be done when building the packages on the CD, or if you're paranoid :-)

But now I have to run updated glibc to get xorg 6.9 work with my vga adapter. And it is a little bit mystic how the things depends on each other. At least I can rely on port's README... -- Mikhail Kolesnik ICQ: #260259143 IRC: freenode/mike_k, rusnet/mike_k NIC handle: MKK83-UANIC

I second that. Though we should use 4.0.3, which is already tagged in gcc-svn [1]. I guess it's available within some days as an tarball. Greetings Juergen [1] http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/tags/ -- Juergen Daubert | mailto:jue@jue.li Korb, Germany | http://jue.li/crux

It's already available, I've been rebuilding for some hours now. Maybe it just hasn't hit you mirror yet? In any case, I fully support Johannes' suggested upgrade path.
