I fixed a problem in the i686 build recently, but the symptom was different from your: GCC itself failed to build.

Maybe it's worthing try 09 release (which will probably be announced today)

Hi, I'm having some very odd problems building the 2014.08 toolchain respin -- in the cbuild1 i686-lucid env, building glibc fails with

(Yes, the fix is to get rid of cbuild1 and more importantly the requirement for 32-bit builds in a prehistoric environment - it builds just fine on 64-bit present-day boxes... But I don't think we want to make that change in a respin).

The "variably modified" errors remain even after hardcoding

typedef struct { __cpu_mask __bits[16]; } cpu_set_t;

instead of relying on __CPU_SETSIZE and __NCPUBITS, and the line where it complains about alignment not being a positive power of 2 actually hardcodes an alignment of 16. Have you run into those before?
