Crash compiling binutils for alpha

[Ralf Jahr]

Hello,

For running benchmarks on the gem5 simulator I am trying to get a cross 
compiler for alpha. My host platform is Debian Linux (Squeeze) running 
on x86 in a virtual machine. Crosstool-NG installed without many 
problems, I then created a new folder (~/gem5sim/tc) and executed ct-ng 
menuconfig and ct-ng build afterwards.

The process stops when after starting with the binutils (see end of this 
email). I uploaded my config file and the log file here:
http//88.80.200.38/cross.tar.gz

I was not able to find something plausible from the log file. Changing 
the binutils version and GCC version did not help. I also checked the 
"known issues" but was not able to find something helping.

What could I do to get things running?

Thanks for any help,

Ralf
