Internal compiler error problems?

Has anyone, by chance, run into any issues with internal compiler problems
on sun3 with NetBSD-5.0? I've seen it so far with lynx, nmap, tme (yeah -
tme on a sun3... don't ask. :) ) and a couple of others. I don't want to
send a send-pr for each individual package since it's happening enough now
that it may actually be a compiler issue.

Anyone else seeing this?

Just a couple of quick thoughts:
- Does it always happen on the same files in the same place?
- Does 'unlimit' (csh/tcsh) before building help?
- Does using -O1 or -O0 affect it?

So far, yes to all three. I seem to get consistent results regardless of
those changes - I just ran a test on tme, for example (since it takes
the least time to compile of the group), doing/undoing each item to see if I
can get it to do something different, and it doesn't.

I have a feeling then that based on your response that I'm the only one
seeing this issue. That said, I'll try to get tme going tonight with a
dd of this machine and see if also it happens on different "hardware."

You might want to ask on port-m68k or one of the other m68k ports
(maybe port-mac68k or port-atari) to see if its showing up on
other m68k ports. It may just be that no-one has tried to build
those apps on sun3 recently :/

(though sun3 and sun3x have different pmaps)
---
# uname -mrs
NetBSD 5.0 sun3
# sysctl hw.model
hw.model = sun3x 80
# pkg_info lynx
