I've recently started getting “libstdc++-v3/include/functional:2057:63:
internal compiler error: tree check: expected tree_vec, have error_mark
in comp_template_args_with_info, at cp/pt.c:7038” on i686-linux-gnu,
building libstdc++-v3/src/c++11/functexcept.cc -fPIC, at stage1 and on
non-bootstrapped builds.  The problem would not occur on
x86_64-linux-gnu with the -m32 multilib.

Jakub reported getting similar errors in the testsuite, but not in the
libstdc++-v3 build.

Bisection revealted the patch that exposed the latent error was r186948,
but I gather it only introduced more potentially-failing specializations
in libstdc++-v3 at spots that wouldn't trigger the bug before.

I couldn't pinpoint the exact source of randomness that causes the build
to fail at precisely the same point on a given machine at a certain
stage, but not on others.  What I do know is that it occurs while
iterating on a hash table, which, depending on how the hash is computed,
may explain why we visit some nodes before others depending on
environmentally-deterministic causes.

Anyway, the problem is that, for some unsuitable candidate template
specializations, tsubst returns error_mark_node, which tsubst_decl
stores in argvec, and later on register_specialization gets this
error_mark_node and tries to access it as a tree_vec.

The trivial patch that avoids the misbehavior is returning
error_mark_node as soon as we get that for argvec.  Bootstrapped on
i686-pc-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu, regstrapped on the latter.

Ok to install?

I suppose this is PR 53209.

Thanks for dealing with this!

This does fix:

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53209

Can someone review it?

Thanks.

FYI, this has been reported as
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53209, so you might add a
reference to that bug in the ChangeLog.

Other than that, I cannot approve or reject this patch, but FWIW, it
looks fine to me.

Let's CC jason.

Thanks, installed a few days ago.

Is it ok for the 4.7 branch too?  I didn't realize the bug could occur
there as well, but PR c++/53209 suggests it does.  Regstrapping now.
