I'm not sure what is the real problem, but the cvs version of gcc is
very buggy for SH in this several weeks.
Now make checking of gcc reports to me several hundred unexpected
failures. It doesn't bootstrap without some fixes. Please try to get
the version of around 2000/6/1 with -D option if you prefer cvs version.

I hear that even 2000/6/1 version fails at the gcse optimization
for some sources. In such case, you can use the gcc option like
-O2 -fno-gcse to disable the individual optimization.
