Sorry, my fault. I just read the first line

> gcc version 4.1.2 20070925 (Red Hat 4.1.2-33)

and then stopped reading... Since RedHat broke the GCC on RedHat 7 a few
years back there's a thing clicking in my brain whenever I read RedHat
and GCC in one line... kind of a trauma ...

But I guess it is not their fault this time. I'll try tomorrow if it's
compiling for me, just figured that I use mips and you're using arm.
Could you post me your .config (not necessarily to the list)?

Cheers,

Georg
