Description swen 2010-04-13 14:50:49 UTC 
Hello, I try to roll back from binutils 2.20 to 2.18 in my system. I have
installed gcc-3.4 and g++-3.4, the ./configure doesn't report any error, however
when I try to make I got the error below:

	  man=cxxfilt.man; \

I'm wondering how can I make successfully?

Best regards

I cannot actually read that error message.  Do you have your locale set 
to C ?  If not then try changing it to that.

As for the error itself I suspect that it connected with your attempt to 
rollback to the earlier binutils release.  Did you build in a completely 
clean tree ?  (Ie one with no remnants of the 2.20 release).

Cheers
   Nick
