I have recently rebuild my gentoo opteron with mostly gcc 3.4, excluding bootstrap. I have build binutils with no flags and am unable to build dev-sources 2.65

CHK include/linux/compile.h
UPD include/linux/compile.h
CC init/version.o
LD init/built-in.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux1
ld: BFD 2.15.90.0.3 20040415 assertion fail linker.c:619
arch/x86_64/kernel/built-in.o(.init.text+0x6349): In function `sys_ptrace':
include/asm/current.h:10: undefined reference to `iommu_aperture_allowed'
arch/x86_64/kernel/built-in.o(.init.text+0x6361):include/asm/current.h:11: undefined reference to `iommu_aperture_disabled'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

I cant build it with gcc 3.3 either

Any ideas ?

I had this problem... it seems to be kernel related, not gcc related...
What I had to do was enable IOMMU in the kernel, even though I don't use it.

# make menuconfig :

thanks, that fixed it, its building now. Not sure why I need it as its for large memory support, but at least it works

.

Thanks

You could also leave IOMMU disabled and use this patch:
