Assembler error on FreeBSD 9.1, toolchain problem?

[Henry Jen]

Hi,

I tried to build OpenJDK 8 on my FreeBSD box, and encounter assembler error like following. Complete build.log and config.log are attached.

Looks to me it probably a toolchain/environment issue, but I have no idea on what went wrong. The version of tools on the machine are

$ gcc --version

This assembler was configured for a target of `x86_64-unknown-freebsd'.

Is there a minimum version requirement of toolchain? Any one saw this before?

Cheers,
Henry
