EVALUATION
gcc-3.3 has issues with using the debug flag '-g' when compiling newer Hotspot VMs. Specifically, the adlc files fail to compile properly. This is a GCC issue - newer GCC versions in the 4.0 train don't have this problem.
Simply disable debug symbol creation in the adlc makefile for the 6Update trains.
