This is not a problem with the new avr-libc. Instead, it's a problem with the Arduino library.
The good folks at Arduino do not keep up to date with the latest and greatest avr-libc.
When symbols get removed or deprecated (such as in this case,) the Arduino code won't work.
Your options are to fix the Arduino code to use the new symbols, or to use an older version of avr-libc.
Or drop the Arduino libs and code directly for the AVR, which will be more efficient anyway (some of the Arduino libs are pretty inefficient.)

Description: avr-libc 1.8.0-3 "The C runtime library for the AVR family of microcontrollers", produces the following error when compiling for the Arduino Mega 2560 (screen shot attached):

/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/HardwareSerial.cpp:91:41: error: attempt to use poisoned "SIG_USART0_RECV"
/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/HardwareSerial.cpp:101:15: error: attempt to use poisoned "SIG_USART0_RECV"
/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/HardwareSerial.cpp:132:15: error: attempt to use poisoned "SIG_USART1_RECV"
/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/HardwareSerial.cpp:145:15: error: attempt to use poisoned "SIG_USART2_RECV"
/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/HardwareSerial.cpp:158:15: error: attempt to use poisoned "SIG_USART3_RECV"

I have searched the Arch Linux bug tracker and can find no report of this bug. I have googled the error and found that in avr-libc 1.7.1, the bug was not present (see http://www.thebytes.net/2012/05/the-beginning-of-arduino/).  Arch Linux have suggested that I post this bug upstream.

I would like to help the developers fix this bug if I can be of assistance.

Additional info:

  • package version(s)

arduino 1:1.0-3
avr-libc 1.7.1
avr-gcc 4.7.0-1

Reported:
At Arch Linux bug tracker, No. FS#30026.

  • config and/or log files etc.

Steps to reproduce:
Using arduino 1:1.0-3, set the "board" to "Arduino Mega 2560 or Mega ADK" and compile, will produce the bug. Set the "board" to "Arduino Uno" and the bug does not appear, the code downloads to the Arduino and runs ok.
