Here is the offening c program

-- start of hello.c ---
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
  printf("Hello world!\n");

  return(1);
}
-- end of hello.c ---

I try to compile this with 
gcc hello.c
Data abort: 'Permission error (page)' status = 00f address = 00000010 PC = 000ef7f0

My kernel is the one from the netbsd site that says riscpc/gz
uname -a gives

NetBSD unknown.host.domain 1.3.2 NetBSD 1.3.2 (VOYAGER) #0: Sun May 24 20:14:46 BST 1998     root@ebsa:/home/cyclone/netbsd-1.3.2/src/sys/arch/arm32/compile/VOYAGER arm32

(some of) set gives 

cdpath	(/sys /usr/src/bin /usr/src/sbin /usr/src/usr.bin /usr/src/usr.sbin /usr/src/lib /usr/src/libexec /usr/src/share /usr/src/contrib /usr/src/local /usr/src/games /usr/src/old /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin /usr/src/gnu/libexec /usr/src/gnu/lib /usr/src/gnu/games)

shell	/bin/csh

Of interest gcc -E (Preprocess only) does not crash and the first two lines printed are

# 1 "hello.c"
# 1 "/usr/include/stdio.h" 1 3

gcc -S (Preprocess and assemble) starts up creates the file hello.s (which is empty) and crashes with the above error.

ll hello.* gives
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  81 Sep  6 09:07 hello.c
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   0 Sep  7 10:08 hello.s

gcc is in /usr/bin
-r-xr-xr-x  2 bin  bin  57344 May 19 19:03 /usr/bin/gcc
and cc1 is in /usr/libexec
-r-xr-xr-x  1 bin  bin  1470464 May 19 19:03 /usr/libexec/cc1

Dont know where that other (2) link to gcc is.

I think if I can sort this include problem out it may help me
get X running (optimism).
