I'm trying to build a Linux/Intel compiler to generate PowerPC/AIX binaries (as part of my ongoing quest not to use the Codewarrior pascal compiler). I've been following the instructs in http://www.objsw.com/CrossGCC. These instructions work fine when building a non-gpc-patched version of egcs 1.1.1, but the gpc-patched version goes into some sort of recursive make - it spews out the following over and over again, making a new make each time, until it hits about 200 make processes, whereupon they all exit and the process aborts with an error. The circular dependency thing looks interesting...any ideas?
In `Make-lang.in', search for "bad news". Please retry and remove the dependency of "$(GCC_PARTS)" in the rule below that comment.
This circular dependency compiler <-- runtime library <-- compiler is an unsolved problem in GPC's `Make-lang.in'. Help from Makefile experts (or others who have an idea:-) is most welcome.
