running slakware 3.5 on an i486. liked gpc 2.0 so downloaded gpc-199808 *
put gcc-2.8.1 in /usr/local/src from dist. disk unpacked gpc-199808* and moved p to gcc-2.8.1
ran patch -s -p1 < p/diffs/gcc-2.8.1.diff ( while in gcc-2.8.1 directory)
ran ../gcc-2.8.1/configure --prefix=/usr ( got same end result using --prefix=/usr/local )
ran make LANGUAGES=pascal about 45 min later program stopped with these last lines:
module.o: In function 'execute': /usr/local/src/gcc-2.8.1/p/module.c: 510 undefined reference to 'version_flag' module o: In function 'compile_module': /usr/local/src/gcc-2.8.1/p/module.c: 796 undefined reference to 'version_flag' module.o: In function 'compile_module': /usr/local/src/gcc-2.8.1/p/module.c 920 undefined reference to 'version_flag' Collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: ***[../gpc1] Error 1 etc
