[Bug 817375] Re: g++ 4.3 and 4.4 internal compiler error when compiling boost 1.46.1 and 1.47

[Ryan Santos]

To compile, just extract the package and ensure that libbz2-dev and
zlib1g-dev are installed so that the boost iostream package will compile
properly. Then on the command line in the directory where you extracted
the package, do the following:

./bootstrap.sh

sudo ./bjam -a --threading=multi variant=release install

Please ignore errors related to has_icu_test.cpp (from reading other
forums). That error was meant to be a boost precompile check.

The internal compiler error we are looking for will not stop the build
so you just need to be sensitive to the console output after around
50mins of compilation. If the internal compiler error was missed and the
boost was able to produce the libraries, the resulting libraries are
broken and will not be usable in projects that need them. Different
compiler undefined errors will come out and sometimes you get another
internal compiler error as well.

Title:
  g++ 4.3 and 4.4 internal compiler error when compiling boost 1.46.1
  and 1.47

Status in “gcc-defaults” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I tried compiling boost libraries in Ubuntu 10.04.3 but I get the
  following error. The error also occurs even after reinstallation and
  re-upgrading the distribution again. Boost compilation used to work in
  ubuntu 10.04.02. Some of my projects fail to compile as well with a
  similar internal compiler error.

  ./boost/xpressive/detail/dynamic/dynamic.hpp:78 internal compiler error: in update_stmt_operands, at tree-ssa-operands.c:2589
  Please submit a full bug report,
  with preprocessed source if appropirate.
