gcc/g++ seriously broken in gutsy latest amd64

[BullCreek]

Binary package hint: gcc-4.1

I've been trying to build some stuff today, and while basic hello world apps compile and run, more complicated things invariably yield a compiler error as follows:

I just installed this system, and did an update/upgrade to pick up all the latest fixes - so I'm a little unsure if this is a generic problem with gcc-4.1 and amd64 (I hope not!) or something to do with kinks in the latest updates. Please help!

I have this problem on my amd64 gutsy as well. Is there a workaround?

[Brandon D. (nescientia)]

Nevermind, my problem was that /usr/bin/make was seg faulting. I reinstalled the package and it works.

- can you build on another machine (same gcc, same distriubution)?
- please attach the preprocessed source.
