MySQL

[Eric Thelin]

The MySQL site gives a warning on the download page about compiling with
gcc 2.96 or gcc 3.0.  They recommend gcc 2.95.  I have just successfully
compiled mysql 3.23.48 on gcc 3.0.1.  The problems they mention with 2.96 however are
not with the act of compiling but random instability of the produced
binary.

The specific error you are getting makes me wonder about your gcc
installation.  So that would be the first thing to check.
