Another exciting error building lang/mono...

[Chavdar Ivanov <ci4ic4%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hi,

I haven't been able to build lang/mono on -current ( or elsewhere, for
that matter ) for quite some time. I tend to try periodically on
version jumps and pkgsrc updates to build it - not that I have a
particular use for it, but for the bits needed by gnome.

The failure I got this time was of an internal gcc compiler error, as follows:
----------
....
  CXXLD    libmini.la
  CCLD     libmonoboehm-2.0.la
gcc: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault (program ld received signal 11)
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <http://www.NetBSD.org/support/send-pr.html> for instructions.

It fails if I add --with-gc=none:
