[Once I got back to this test yet again I arbitrarily added a #include <stdbool.h> to allow truss to build during buildworld.]

The way I normally build (instead of crochet) did not get the original cc1 problem in its original form. So as of yet I've not managed to reproduce the test case accurately: Back to crochet.



I will note that in my "with debug symbols" and -mcpu=cortex-a7 style of buildworld buildkernel type of boot context I got an explicit message in the xgcc/cc1 test that may indicate the original problem for cc1:

/usr/obj/portswork/usr/ports/lang/gcc6/work/.build/./gcc/cc1: Undefined symbol "__aeabi_uidiv"

[bugzilla https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=213785 ]

At this stage in trying to bootstrap lang/gcc6 as the first gcc compiler on the BPi-M3:

# ldd /usr/obj/portswork/usr/ports/lang/gcc6/work/.build/./gcc/cc1
/usr/obj/portswork/usr/ports/lang/gcc6/work/.build/./gcc/cc1:
	libmpc.so.3 => /usr/local/lib/libmpc.so.3 (0x21aff000)
	libmpfr.so.4 => /usr/local/lib/libmpfr.so.4 (0x21b25000)
	libgmp.so.10 => /usr/local/lib/libgmp.so.10 (0x21bba000)
	libz.so.6 => /lib/libz.so.6 (0x21c5b000)
	libc++.so.1 => /usr/lib/libc++.so.1 (0x21c77000)
	libcxxrt.so.1 => /lib/libcxxrt.so.1 (0x21d1d000)
	libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5 (0x21d3f000)
	libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x21d62000)
	libc.so.7 => /lib/libc.so.7 (0x21e00000)

So /usr/local/lib/ is not yet providing gcc's own library of primitives for xgcc or cc1 to use and when FreeBSD is missing something like__aeabi_uidiv that xgcc/cc1 expects to use there could then be problems:

Part of the issue may be that unlike my usual procedure for gcc* builds:

OPTIONS_FILE_UNSET+=BOOTSTRAP

for the BPI-M3 lang/gcc6 build I used:

OPTIONS_FILE_SET+=BOOTSTRAP

This might explain why I did not see a problem on the rpi2 historically.
