gcc 3.2 was released yesterday.

Whenever I build Python, I start by unpacking the source-code
distribution into an empty directory, so I am quite confident that
there are no dregs left over from earlier builds.

I'll give that a try.

Guido> binutils problem.

There was definitely a problem with binutils 2.13 -- when handed
the libtcl8.3.so distributed by ActiveState, it dumps core.
However, that problem does not occur if I build libtcl8.3.so from
the tcl source distribution.  Nor does it occur with binutils 2.12.

Guido> A SourceForge bug report might be in order regardless.

I'll file one once I have identified the failure conditions more accurately.
