Host/Target specific installation notes for egcs-1.0
|
|
|
|
alpha*-*-*
|
|
No specific installation needs/instructions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
i?86-*-linux*
|
|
You will need binutils-2.8.1.0.15 or newer for exception handling to work.
|
|
|
|
i?86-*-sco3.2v5*
|
|
The SCO assembler is currently required. The GNU assembler is not up
|
|
to the task of switching between ELF and COFF at runtime.
|
|
|
|
Unlike various prereleases of GCC, that used '-belf' and defaulted to
|
|
COFF, you must now use the '-melf' and '-mcoff' flags to toggle between
|
|
the two object file formats. ELF is now the default.
|
|
|
|
Look in gcc/config/i386/sco5.h (search for "messy") for additional
|
|
OpenServer-specific flags.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hppa*-hp-hpux*
|
|
We highly recommend using gas/binutils-2.8 on all hppa platforms; you
|
|
may encounter a variety of problems when using the HP assembler.
|
|
|
|
hppa*-hp-hpux9
|
|
The HP assembler has major problems on this platform. We've tried to work
|
|
around the worst of the problems. However, those workarounds may be causing
|
|
linker crashes in some circumstances; the workarounds also probably prevent
|
|
shared libraries from working. Use the GNU assembler to avoid these problems.
|
|
|
|
The configuration scripts for egcs will also trigger a bug in the hpux9
|
|
shell. To avoid this problem set CONFIG_SHELL to /bin/ksh and SHELL to
|
|
/bin/ksh in your environment.
|
|
|
|
hppa*-hp-hpux10
|
|
For hpux10.20, we highly recommend you pick up the latest sed
|
|
patch from HP. HP has two sites which provide patches free of charge.
|
|
|
|
http://us-support.external.hp.com for US, Canada, Asia-Pacific, and
|
|
Latin-America
|
|
http://europe-support.external.hp.com for Europe
|
|
|
|
Retrieve patch PHCO_12862.
|
|
|
|
The HP assembler on these systems is much better than the hpux9 assembler,
|
|
but still has some problems. Most notably the assembler inserts timestamps
|
|
into each object file it creates, causing the 3-stage comparison test to fail
|
|
during a "make bootstrap". You should be able to continue by saying "make all"
|
|
after getting the failure from "make bootstrap".
|
|
|
|
m68k-*-nextstep*
|
|
You absolutely must use GNU sed and GNU make on this platform.
|
|
|
|
If you try to build the integrated C++ & C++ runtime libraries on this system
|
|
you will run into trouble with include files. The way to get around this is
|
|
to use the following sequence. Note you must have write permission to
|
|
prefix for this sequence to work.
|
|
|
|
cd objdir
|
|
make all-texinfo all-bison all-byacc all-binutils all-gas all-ld
|
|
cd gcc
|
|
make bootstrap
|
|
make install-headers-tar
|
|
cd ..
|
|
make bootstrap3
|
|
|
|
m68k-sun-sunos4.1.1
|
|
It is reported that you may need the GNU assembler on this platform.
|
|
|
|
mips*-sgi-irix4
|
|
mips*-sgi-irix5
|
|
You must use GAS on these platforms, the native assembler can not handle the
|
|
code for exception handling support on this platform.
|
|
|
|
These systems don't have ranlib, which various components in egcs need; you
|
|
should be able to avoid this problem by installing GNU binutils, which includes
|
|
a functional ranlib for this system.
|
|
|
|
You may get the following warning on irix4 platforms, it can be safely
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
warning: foo.o does not have gp tables for all its sections.
|
|
|
|
mips*-sgi-irix6
|
|
You must not use GAS on irix6 platforms; doing so will only cause problems.
|
|
|
|
These systems don't have ranlib, which various components in egcs need; you
|
|
should be able to avoid this problem by making a dummy script called ranlib
|
|
which just exits with zero status and placing it in your path.
|
|
|
|
rs6000-ibm-aix*
|
|
powerpc-ibm-aix*
|
|
At least one person as reported problems with older versions of gnu-make on
|
|
this platform. make-3.76 is reported to work correctly.
|
|
|
|
powerpc-*-linux-gnu*
|
|
You will need binutils-2.8.1.0.17 from ftp://ftp.yggdrasil.com/private/hjl for
|
|
a working egcs. It is strongly recommended to recompile binutils with egcs
|
|
if you initially built it with gcc-2.7.2.*.
