I have put a new gpc snapshot at: http://www.math.uni.wroc.pl/~hebisch/gpc-20060325.tar.bz2
Next, I will try with gcc-4.
The compiler does build on powerpc-apple-darwin8 with gcc-4.0.3 (I bootstrapped an FSF-gcc-4.0.3 C compiler first). Next I tried the testsuite.
I suppose this means you are running Tiger. What could I do to build on old machines with Panther or Jaguar?
I haven't tried gpc-20060325 with gcc-4 on Mac OS X 10.3. I guess it is possible, because I do have a FSF gcc 4.0 C compiler running on Mac OS X 10.3.9. However, for important new features like creating 64-bit applications, you would need Mac OS X 10.4 anyway, so there is no point in moving to gcc-4 on Mac OS X 10.3, as gcc-3.4.x is more stable at this point.
Since I sold my old G4, I can not run and test Mac OS X 10.2 anymore (I now have a G5 with 10.3.9 and 10.4).
For building details, have a look at the scripts that come with the source code at my website (the build process for the 32-bit compilers hasn't changed).
Do you recommend odcctools?
odcctools is a great project, especially for creating cross-compilers targeting Mac OS X. It should be possible to use both Apple cctools and Open Darwin odcctools.
