Are you by any chance using a non UTF-8 capable xterm?
This cannot be the problem. These messages are supposed to contain
the names of C Language Identifiers. Such characters are illegal
in C source.
I used to see this when ssh-ing into FC4 from an openbsd system, using
the default openbsd xterms.
This is a defect in gcc, almost surely. He could have a clobbered
compiler.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
