fork.c:353: fixed or forbidden register 68 (0) was spilled for class CR0_REGS.
This may be due to a compiler bug or to impossible asm
statements or clauses.

You shouldn't be using _anything_ older than gcc-2.95.2 on PPC anymore. In
the meantime the release of gcc-2.95.3 is pending and I would _strongly_
recommend you to use it.
You can find the latest RPM's on
<ftp://devel.linuxppc.org/users/fsirl/glibc-2.1/>, the current revision is
2t, which corresponds to gcc-2.95.3.test2.

Minimum download are the cpp and gcc packages, for C++ you need gcc-c++ and
libstdc++ packages as well.
