Bug #10397: gcc 4.1.2 for x86 can't build trunk

Recently CentOS 5.6 x86 can't build ruby-trunk.
This is since r47562 and it hit gcc bug.

Do people want CRuby to continue RHEL/CentOS 5.6 support?
If so, ideally it is fixed by gcc.

Wrong list? Cc-ing ruby-core

Oops. I didn't think r47562 was too strange for a compiler :x

Problem seems isolated to 32-bit x86, x86-64 on CentOS 5.4
has no problem (but I'm not using CentOS 5.x much anymore)

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-46)

I can probably continue with x86-64, but not 32-bit.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 ships with Ruby 1.8.5, more recent releases of Ruby, as they are shipped in Red Hat Software Collections, are available since Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6+. Moreover, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 is already in Production 3 Phase [1], so it is not likely to get this fixed in GCC. Nevertheless, the best is to contact Red Hat's support if needed.

This is Red Hat's Ruby maintainer view, not necessarily RHEL/CentOS 5.6 users view.
