[Gcc][Compile Error] Compile gcc 4.4.2 on Fedora 17

Error :

./.libs/libgcj.so: undefined reference to `__cxa_call_unexpected'

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

make[3]: *** [jv-convert] Error 1

make: *** [all] Error 2

Solution :

Use nm to find the symbol (__cxa_call_unexpected) in which *.o.

Then will know which file error.

See the red word. Compile enter the `/home/happy/gcc-4.4.2/i686-pc-linux-gnu/libjava. Then will find ./i686-pc-linux-gnu/libjava/prims.o have error.

This bug can find in Bug 50888 - Bootstrap failure in libjava against latest git glibc.

Seeing the patch, patch to the source code.

Make will successfully.
