Hi!

A few days ago I upgraded my ALT Linux distro from
ftp://ftp.altlinux.ru/pub/distributions/ALTLinux/Sisyphus
repository and quickly discovered that after this
I've got serious GCL build problem.  To be more precise
traditional GCL builds successfully but ANSI GCL
always fails at the same point

----------------------------------------------------
Compiling PCL_DEFCLASS...
Compiling /home/vadim/test/gcl-01/unixport/../pcl/pcl_defclass.lisp.

Similar problem occurs during Axiom build

End of Pass 1.
End of Pass 2.

----------------------------------------------------

After some investigation I'm sure that problem is due to
upgrade of binutils from 2.14.90.0.6 to 2.14.90.0.8.

I've tried to build GCL with --disable-statsysbfd --enable-locbfd
but in vain - the problem still persists.  So, it seems that
new libbfd/libiberty aren't responsible.  Quite puzzling!

I'm not sure at the moment who is the real troublemaker
here GCL or binutils but I'd like to find out before
2.6.2 release.

Best wishes,

Vadim
