I got it to work with a fairly straightforward adaptation of the gcc49 PKGBUILD: https://www.dropbox.com/s/x9f5b1vdqvidtf1/gcc48.tar.gz?dl=0

I just dropped ownership of this package, since I require it no longer. Feel free to step up and to submit a working PKGBUILD!

Working PKGBUILD: http://pastebin.com/gxWZW2s1 It removes the __gnu_inline__ declaration; I don't know if that's the best fix. I also had to export LD_PRELOAD because other commands besides configure needed it. Finally, my CHOST apparently doesn't match the directory for the docs. IIRC, this was changed in /etc/makepkg.conf not too long ago.

I'm trying to build using makepkg -sri.

Dependency cloog tests fail due to incompatibility with isl 0.16 Remove any isl from your system, get isl 0.15 from upstream (http://isl.gforge.inria.fr/), install and restart gcc48 installation. Thanks Namarrgon for solution

Thank you for investigating! I agree that this is most probably due to debug information contained in the final binaries and I would also agree to follow the main `gcc` package in the choice of compile flags.

P.S. While researching this I noticed that most parts of GCC seem to be compiled with "-g -O2" instead of CFLAGS from makepkg.conf (-g could partially be the source for these strings). I suppose this can be fixed by explicitly specifying BOOT_CFLAGS/CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET (see https://gcc.gnu.org/install/build.html), but I guess it is more a discussion for the main Arch "gcc" package.

Thanks for the update! I checked the files and I agree that it is not clear how to fix the warning. Also some of the strings seem to be legitimate.

* updated to 4.8.5 * added LD_PRELOAD, please check if this fixes your issue, hzy199411 @andreyv: I do not see how to get rid of this warning. Almost all created binaries (in this package) contain this information. Let me know if you have a fix!

Hello, GCC 4.8.5 is available. Also, when installing the package, there is this warning from makepkg: WARNING: Package contains reference to $srcdir namcap output also seems related.
