I'm trying to build 3.7.0 locally (not as superuser) on a server. I am able to successfully build without `--enable-optimizations` enabled, but the build fails with it enabled.

I have dependencies installed in custom locations as well, and this is my environment.

PREF=/scratch

export LC_ALL=C
export CC=gcc
export CXX=g++
    
export PATH=/opt/gcc/4.9.2/bin:$PREF/binutils/bin:/bin:/usr/bin
    
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/gcc/4.9.2/lib64:/opt/gcc/4.9.2/lib:$PREF/bzip2/lib:$PREF/gdbm/lib:$PREF/libffi/lib64:$PREF/ncurses/lib:$PREF/openmpi/lib:$PREF/openssl/lib:$PREF/readline/lib:$PREF/sqlite/lib:$PREF/util-linux/lib:$PREF/xz/lib:$PREF/zlib/lib:/usr/lib64
    
export CPATH=/opt/gcc/4.9.2/include:$PREF/bzip2/include:$PREF/gdbm/include:$PREF/libffi/include:$PREF/ncurse
s/include:$PREF/openmpi/include:$PREF/openssl/include:$PREF/readline/include:$PREF/sqlite/include:$PREF/util
-linux/include:$PREF/xz/include:$PREF/zlib/include

I also have to update setup.py to point to the right locations for dependencies. This is the diff, and I've attached the full file.

This is my build process.

mkdir build && cd build

make -j 8

And this is the error that I get. It's when rebuilding with optimizations.

Rebuilding with profile guided optimizations:
rm -f profile-clean-stamp

        if test $? -ne 0 ; then \
                echo "generate-posix-vars failed" ; \
                rm -f ./pybuilddir.txt ; \
                exit 1 ; \
        fi

I tried searching for the error, and there seem to be similar errors related to improper PYTHONHOME, but I couldn't find anything related to build. I was able to build 3.6 with the same procedure, so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong.

It's look you're using a fairly old toolchain. I wouldn't reccomend using fancy modern compiler optimizations with GCC 4.

Hi. Do you mean turning of `--enable-optimizations` or reducing GCC optimization level (O3 etc)?
msg321668 - (view) Author: Benjamin Peterson (benjamin.peterson) * (Python committer) Date: 2018-07-15 00:14
--enable-optimizations

Updating gcc to 8.1.0 fixed the problem.
