Problem building simulator for Clip+

[grums]

I've (finally) setup a VMware-based development system, using http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/VMwareDevelopmentPlatform.

I want to build a Clip+ system (in clipp), and first I select a Simulator build.
To test it I do a make, and get this error (after a long list):

[typed by hand]

CC apps/codecs/adx.c
LD adx.codecs
/home/user/rockbox/clipp/apps/codecs/libcodec.a(fixedpoint.o)(.text.fp_sqrt+0x24): In function 'isqrt':
/home/user/rockbox/apps/fixedpoint.c:112: undefined reference to '__builtin_clzl'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [/home/user/rockbox/clipp/apps/codecs/adx.codec] Error 1

I think I've followed the instructions closely - are they up to date?

Gave up using the VMware image and established an environment with the VirtualBox image as described.
It seems to use more resources on my system than the VMware system, but maybe that's just how it is...

Now the Clip+ Simulator is built OK, but it seems to loop.

When i issue the svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox command, I seem to get the sources for the last daily build (which is probably what most people want) - but how do I get the latest stable release instead? I'll try building the simulator from that.

when you check out trunk, you get trunk, which is indeed what the daily builds are built from, and probably what you should get if you want to work on developing rockbox.

replace "trunk" in the address with "branches/v3_7" to get the 3.7 branch or "tags/v3_7_1" to get the source for 3.7.1

Future releases get branched from trunk, so you're better off working with that if you want to contribute your changes back to the project.
