I'm fairly certain I built 9.2 on this machine before, but it failed this time.

Dell 7920 
320 GB RAM
2 x Intel Xeon 8167M CPUs (2.0 GHz, 26-core each)
Machine under a heavy load looking for Mersenne Primes at GIMPS

1) Run configure
2) make -j50

I attach the log which does not seem that informative. I'm wondering if there was some issue because I was running make with "-j50" but there are more than 50 cores on this.

your log says KeyboardInterrupt

a cat on the kbd? :-)

Needless to say, you ought to be trying 9.3.rc2 - or whatever the latest...

Cheers,
Dima

Thank you. I never see thata. I'm using a laptop to connect to the workstation, via a WiFi link, which might be the issue.

I was rather looking for a "stable release", rather than a release candidate, as in general software at least, the stable releases have less features, but less bugs. But maybe that's not appropriate here.

You may recall me from years ago porting Sage to Solaris. I have all but given up with Solaris now, and are interested in learning some number theory.

Certainly the old Sage hands recall you.

We still have access to a Sparc Solaris 11.4 machine, not much time to get the port fixed again, though. 

(marked closed, but it's cause we for a while didn't have access. needless to say, it's mostly academic interest now, 
an example of a big-endian box)
