gcc Segmentation Fault

Hello,

(I'm not sure if this post should go here, but I am new to linux)

I was trying to install xulrunner-1.8 to later install Aptana when this error popped up.

If I try to do gcc -Wall hello.c -o hello on hello.c

#include<stdio.h>

void main()
{
    printf("Hello, World!");
}

The error it comes up is

gcc: Internal error: Segmentation fault (program cc1)

My gcc -v

Using built-in specs.
Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,objc,obj-c++,treelang --enable-threads=posix --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-multilib --libdir=/usr/lib --libexecdir=/usr/lib --enable-clocale=gnu --disable-libstdcxx-pch --with-tune=generic
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.3.3 (GCC)

I already tried to reinstall gcc and gcc-libs.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thank you!

Re: gcc Segmentation Fault

I would try a 'memtest' - 'gcc' is notoriously hard on memory - about the worst there is.

The 'memtest' passed without error.

Unfortunately memtest needs to run many tests before you can be sure that it's not a memory problem. One or two passes only checks for a small fraction of possible problems. 12 to 24 hours is what I've read is recommended

Re: gcc Segmentation Fault

I have to run THAT much?! Alright, I'll let it run through the night. But assuming that either it is the memory's fault, what could I do to fix it. Also, what if after tonight nothing else pops up, is there any other way to proceed?

You really think they're looking for an answer eleven and a half years later?
