Hi, I'm not on the mailing list as of yet. To tell you the truth this is
the first time I've tried pgcc. To complicate matters I'm not sure if
this is a pgcc problem, or a code problem in the current cvs tree of
E and gimp.

I checked out the cvs version of pgcc today, ran configure and built it.
To be on the safe side I ran 'make bootstrap' before I clobbered my 
(working) gcc compiler. All went well. I'm currently building my 2nd 
kernel of the day with pgcc. The first one built fine. 

The problem is, when I go to build E ( a number of freinds have built it
fine with regular gcc) I get various error messages. I get the same sort
of errors with Gimp also . If I use the default settings, the error is:
gimp.c: In function `gimp_extension_process':
gimp.c:1015: Invalid `asm' statement:
gimp.c:1015: fixed or forbidden register 2 (cx) was spilled for class CREG.
make[2]: *** [gimp.lo] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/jstelzer/cvs/gimp/libgimp'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jstelzer/cvs/gimp'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2


Now if I use GCC, the code compiles properly. Also, the kernel I tried 
compiling worked, but had problems with NFS. Older kernel (same version
2.2.2) worked fine.

Some modules in gnome seem fine, so its not accross the board. 
Should I back off to a less bleeding edge version of pgcc? Any 
recomendations? Is this a symptom of something else being out of 
date? I'm pretty sure I have current versions of libtool, autoconf,
automake and whatnot. Also, I'm running RH5.2. As far as I know that
has a pretty up to date libc6 library so I dont think thats it.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
