problem building gnome-objc

[Clint McCreary <clintm grove ufl edu>]

I am using gcc 2.8.1 and glibc.  Everything works fine until it
tries to compile obgtkObject.m at which time it coughs with this
message:

obgtkObject.m: In function `obgtk_signal_relay':
obgtkObject.m:133: Could not find a spill register
(insn:HI 561 559 562 (set (mem:DF (reg:SI 0 %eax))
        (subreg:DF (reg:SI 129) 0)) 77 {movdf_mem+1} (insn_list 559 (nil))
    (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg:SI 0 %eax)
        (nil)))
gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1obj got fatal signal 6


Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Clint McCreary
