Yeah, we like that too :-)

Thanks for reading the site docs - you really do like Slackware,
don't you?  ;-)

Here's the relevant portion of the error log, so far as I can tell:

That doesn't look good - that "internal compiler error" pretty much
indicates one of two things:
  1. a compiler bug
  2. faulty memory on your system
Number 2 could be transient (for example, heat related), which would
be plausible considering what you're building

I've got a clean 12.0 installation here, and I'm in the process of
verifying (again) that everything builds properly.  I wouldn't
normally be concerned at all, as we test everything, but the lyx
script was tested with qt4-4.3.1 and then qt4 was later upgraded.

I'll have more information soon, but in the meantime, I think you
should be exploring the possibility of faulty memory.
