   The newest release, 2.5.7, should be pretty solid except on the
   RS/6000, which has a nasty bug in the back end for the % (modulo)
   operator.

Is this why I'm getting this error upon compiling libgcc2?

xgcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 6
make: *** [libgcc2.a] Error 1

If so, is there a fix?  Do I need to drop back a version or two?

Thanks for any help.
