| During the compilation of octave with make, I received the following two errors. I still tried to run make install, but I am not able to run octave.

When the compiler crashes, it is a compiler bug.

| C compiler:       gcc, version 2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release)

Egcs is obsolete.  Use gcc 2.95.2.  If this problem remains, send a
complete bug report to the gcc maintainers.
