Loop unrolling doesn't work properly for certain C++ programs. This is

The solution is not to use such a directory for building GCC.
@item
In previous versions of GCC, the @code{gcc} driver program looked for
@code{as} and @code{ld} in various places; for example, in files
beginning with @file{/usr/local/lib/gcc-}. GCC version 2 looks for
them in the directory
@file{/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/@var{target}/@var{version}}.
Thus, to use a version of @code{as} or @code{ld} that is not the system
default, for example @code{gas} or GNU @code{ld}, you must put them in
that directory (or make links to them from that directory).

It would be nice to extend GAS to produce the gp tables, but they are
optional, and there should not be a warning about their absence.

In Ultrix 4.0 on the MIPS machine, @file{stdio.h} does not work with GNU
CC at all unless it has been fixed with @code{fixincludes}. This causes
problems in building GCC. Once GCC is installed, the problems go
away.
To work around this problem, when making the stage 1 compiler, specify
this option to Make:
@example
GCC_FOR_TARGET="./xgcc -B./ -I./include"
@end example
When making stage 2 and stage 3, specify this option:
@example
CFLAGS="-g -I./include"
