We require binutils 2.11 or newer. Previous binutils releases
|
||||
had a number of problems with DWARF2 debugging information, not
|
||||
the least of which is incorrect linking of shared libraries.
|
||||
This section contains general configuration information for all
|
||||
alpha-based platforms using ELF (in particular, ignore this section for
|
||||
OSF and tru64). In addition to reading this section, please read all
|
||||
other sections that match your target.
|
||||
|
||||
We require binutils 2.11.1 (as of yet unreleased), binutils with
|
||||
binutils-2_11-branch tag after May 31, 2001 (as taken below), or newer.
|
||||
Previous binutils releases had a number of problems with DWARF2
|
||||
debugging information, not the least of which is incorrect linking of

shared libraries.
|

|
||||
Until binutils 2.11.1 is released, these sample commands may be useful:
|
||||
|
||||
@smallexample
|
||||
mkdir binutils-2.11.X; cd binutils-2.11.X
|
||||
cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@@anoncvs.cygnus.com:/cvs/src \
|
||||
co -rbinutils-2_11-branch -P binutils
|
||||
mkdir obj; cd obj
|
||||
../src/configure --prefix=@emph{an-absolute-path}
|
||||
make all check install
|
||||
@end smallexample
|
||||
|
||||
When configuring gcc, provide explicit @option{--with-gnu-as}
|
||||
@option{--with-as=}@emph{an-absolute-path/bin/as} and
|
||||
@option{--with-gnu-ld} @option{--with-ld=}@emph{an-absolute-path/bin/ld}
|
||||
options to point into the prefix used above.

The version of binutils installed in /usr/bin is known to work unless
|
||||
otherwise specified in any per-architecture notes. However, binutils
|
||||
2.11 is known to improve overall testsuite results.
|
||||
|
||||
For FreeBSD 1, FreeBSD 2 or any mutant a.out versions of FreeBSD 3: All
|
||||
configuration support and files as shipped with gcc 2.95 are still in
|
||||
place. FreeBSD 2.2.7 has been known to bootstrap completely; however,
|
||||
it is unknown which version of binutils was used (it is assumed that it
|
||||
was the system copy in /usr/bin) and C++ EH failures were noted.
|
||||
|
||||
For FreeBSD using the ELF file format: DWARF2 debugging is now the
|
||||
default for all CPU architectures. It had been the default on
|
||||
FreeBSD/alpha since its inception. You may use @option{-gstabs} instead
|
||||
of @option{-g}, if you really want the old debugging format. There are
|
||||
no known issues with mixing object files and libraries with different
|
||||
debugging formats. Otherwise, this release of gcc should now match more
|
||||
of the configuration used in the stock FreeBSD configuration of gcc. In
|
||||
particular, @option{--enable-threads} is now configured by default.
|
||||
However, as a general user, do not attempt to replace the system
|
||||
compiler with this release. Known to bootstrap and check with good
|
||||
results on FreeBSD 3.0, 3.4, 4.0, 4.2, 4.3 and 5-CURRENT.
|
||||
|
||||
At this time, @option{--enable-threads} is not compatible with
|
||||
@option{--enable-libgcj} on FreeBSD.
