I have installed GPC and GCC on a Solaris 7 x86 platform.  We are migrating software from RISC/SPARC Sun OS to x86 Solaris 7.

GPC is version 19991030. based on 2.95 19990728.  GCC is 2.95.2.

The GPC Mailing List archive web site has been unreachable.  I apologize if the following question has already be addressed in the past.

Problem:  GPC will not compile our Pascal source files since they do not have any Program statements.

Sample program:

Procedure hello;
begin
  Writeln ('PASCAL says: Hello, world.');
  Writeln (' ')
End;

****end of sample program****

When I run GPC (gpc -c filename), I get the following messages:
  warning: missing program header
  parse error at end of input

The only way I found to get gpc to compile is by adding:
Begin
End.

at the end of the source file.  I still get the warning message about missing program header but GPC compiles.  I would prefer not to do this since we will be using the same source files for the maintenance of the software in both SPARC/RISC and Intel x86 platforms.

Pls reply to my e-mail address.  I am not yet registered in the gpc mailing list.

Thanks in advance for any assistance extended.
