I don't know much about compilers yet, but this hasn't happened before; gcc gives me this:

%gcc -c file.c (compiling with -Wall does not produce anything unusual)
%gcc -o file file.o
ld: fatal: option -dn and -P are incompatible
ld: fatal: Flags processing errors
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


%gcc -Wall file.c -o file
..... (same stuff for a long time except line # and on different occasion cc**** is different)
/usr/ccs/bin/as: "/var/tmp//cct3ZI2F.s", line 514: error: unknown opcode ".uleb128"
/usr/ccs/bin/as: "/var/tmp//cct3ZI2F.s", line 514: error: statement syntax

object file is generated but not .exe; cc seems to work ok.
here's this:

%gcc -v
Reading specs from /package/GNU/gcc/3.4.3/sparc-sunos5.8/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-

solaris2.8/3.4.3/specs
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/package/GNU/gcc/3.4.3/sparc-sunos5.8 --enable-

languages=c,c++,f77,objc --disable-libgcj --disable-nls --enable-threads=posix --with-

cpu=ultrasparc --host=sparc-sun-solaris2.8 --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --with-

as=/usr/site/ecn/bin/as --with-ld=/usr/site/ecn/bin/ld
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.4.3

Any ideas what's going on and why? and how to fix this?
(i'm ssh-ed into my school's lab machine)

Any help is much appreciated.

Dunno what the heck it's doing...
started working, but I'm still kind of suspicious. I did not do a thing, just started using cc.

After googling for a while with the same "error-message" all I could find is other people's questions about the same thing on similar forums and the only half-answer I saw was: "assembler is producing something different from what gcc expects" .... go figure
Oh, yeah, the OPs in those threads/forums didn't come back ... maybe gcc just becomes possessed once in a blue moon :eek:

So, if anyone has something to say about this topic (seriously though), I would be interested to know.
