Cannot compile cyclone with gcc 4.3.3

I dowloaded the cyclone version from CVS but compile failed with the
output (while doing make):

trace.iA:1:19: error: trace.h: Ficheiro ou directoria inexistente
********************************* ucontext.h...
********************************* ulimit.h...

make: *** [build/i686-pc-linux-gnu/include/cycstubs.o] Segmentation

Brownsing through the mailing list, a similar message was posted on
Nov08 but apparently there were no replies.

The output of the configure script and make are below:

> ./configure

checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu

Re: Cannot compile cyclone with gcc 4.3.3

Hi Nelson,

Sorry for the delay in response.  I don't think anyone is actively
maintaining things these days so it takes us a while to catch up to
new releases.  It may help to revert to previous versions of GCC if
possible...

Re: Cannot compile cyclone with gcc 4.3.3

Hi.  I tried building on a new install of Ubuntu Jaunty, and it failed.
I compiled with an older gcc, 4.1, and it succeeded.  So as Greg says
if you can revert or install the older gcc you have a good chance.

In Ubuntu I can install the old gcc with

     sudo aptitude install gcc-4.1

This does not replace the standard gcc, 4.3.3, it is installed alongside
that one.  To compile cyclone with the older gcc I can do

     make CC=gcc-4.1

Hope this helps.

Also, I have seen problems with the version of the garbage collector
on Mac OS X.  Therefore, I have just updated to the latest version
in our CVS repository.  You might try checking that out as well.

Testing appreciated.

Unfortunately we don't have the time to debug gcc :-(.
