It seems related to:
http://bugs.lttng.org/issues/236
Even the Linux kernel will refuse to be compiled with gcc 4.1.0/4.1.1:
include/linux/compiler-gcc4.h:
/* GCC 4.1.[01] miscompiles __weak */
#ifdef __KERNEL__
# if GCC_VERSION >= 40100 && GCC_VERSION <= 40101
# error Your version of gcc miscompiles the __weak directive
# endif
#endif
I suspect that the gcc 4.1.2 used by redhat might have a similar
behavior.
Can you try compiling a LTTng-UST probe with an upstream gcc 4.1.2
package from http://gcc.gnu.org and let us know the result ?
(http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.1/)
Can you try compiling a recent kernel tree with the gcc 4.1.2 from
Centos and let us know the result ?
Thanks,
Mathieu
