Having a little problem with installing glibc-1.05.1 on a Sparc running 4.1.1.
The problem is when I do "make install" it fails at 
	make -C time subdir_install
Basically when it tries to run 
	zic -d zoneinfo -L leapseconds africa
it falls over with
	make[1]: *** [zoneinfo/Egypt] Segmentation fault (core dumped)
	rm  zoneinfo/make[1]: unlink: zoneinfo/: Invalid argument


Beforehand it has created zic with
	gcc -nostdlib -o zic ../start.o zic.o ../libc.a scheck.o ialloc.o emkdir.o -lgcc ../libc.a
though there were LOTS of warnings, especially compiling zic.c!!


Has anybody seen something like this before? The rest seems to have worked ok.
Here's what I did:
1. ran sh configure sparc-sun-sunos4.1 --prefix=/depot/gnu
2. created configparams which contained 3 lines:
	override stddef.h =
	override stdarg.h =
	defines := -D__SIZE_TYPE__='unsigned long int'
3. Using gnu make(3.63) I ran "make lib" and this worked fine
4. running "make install" gave the errors I described.

I am using gnu version 2.3.3, tho' I didn't use gnu ld or gas.


Thanks in advance,

Ross
