[New-bugs-announce] [issue16529] Compiler error when trying to compile ceval.c on OpenSUSE 11.3

[Marc-Andre Lemburg]

New submission from Marc-Andre Lemburg:

When trying to compile the hg checkout (2012-11-22), I'm getting a compiler error from GCC when trying to compile ceval.c on OpenSUSE 11.3 x64:

gcc -pthread -c -Wno-unused-result -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes     -I. -IInclude -I./Include    -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o Python/ceval.o Python/ceval.c
Python/ceval.c: In function PyEval_EvalFrameEx:
Python/ceval.c:3168:1: internal compiler error: in save_call_clobbered_regs, at caller-save.c:911
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <http://bugs.opensuse.org/> for instructions.
make: *** [Python/ceval.o] Error 1

Here's the gcc version info:

Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=gcc
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.5/lto-wrapper

gcc version 4.5.0 20100604 [gcc-4_5-branch revision 160292] (SUSE Linux)

Interestingly, this error does not happen when compiling the 3.3.0 release version.

It looks similar to these two bugs that are related to some optimization bug in GCC:

 * http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45259 (I can't reproduce this one)
 * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=622060 (This was detected in Fedora for Python 3.1.2)

I guess you could say that the compiler is broken, but I still think that Python's configure script should detect this and then disable --with-computed-gotos.
