I'm having trouble compiling anything on my new shiny Athlon XP.

Basically anything I try to compile keeps failing with the same error. I can't post the exact error but it is something like this:

2.13.90.0.4.20020814 internal error, aborting at elflink.h line 6226 in elf_link_output_extsym

some stuff here

collect2: ld returned exit 1 status

This is also intermittent because sometimes it compiles and sometimes it doesn't.
I couldn't compile my stage 2 and had to go to stage 3 to build the system becuase of this problem. Now I'm trying to emerge Gnome and it keeps stopping all the time. What's funny is if i do an emerge sync the next couple of packages go through and then this happens again. Really weird. Hopefully someone can help me with this.

Can you try some of the stress tests in Segmentation fault with GCC?

I noticed some stability problems with my shiny new Athlon XP as well. I ended up having to clock the system down a few megahertz for a week or so, I suppose until it got 'burned in'. Anyway, after a while, I clocked it back up to a normal speed, and I haven't had any problems since.

Just like a motor in a car? You cannot accelerate too much in the first months 8)

I've heard engines should be broken in the same way you intend to 'use them'. That is, if you plan on running the engine hard, thats how you should break it in. *shrug* I'm guessing it probably doesn't matter much.

Sometime ago, it did. My father worked for Mercedes-Benz in the 70's...

I switched to default settings in my BIOS and after that the compiles went through fine. I think I had the optimized settings loaded on my Shutlle ak35gtr and that might have been the problem. I'm posting this from my newly compiled gnome/mozilla.
