I am trying to build GPC under IRIX. I followed the basic set of instructions from the GPC manual, or wherever it was that I found them, with the exception that I am building all of the compilers instead of just GPC (originally I tried using the specified option to only build GPC, then left it off afterward, and the result is the same).
GCC Version: 2.95.3 GPC Version: 20020510 IRIX Version: 6.5.15m
Using GNU make (called with the command 'gmake' under IRIX).
The problem is this:
The build gets to a certain point, then gives me an "internal error" in the compiler. I tried placing empty Pascal files in place of some of the originals, but the error simply changes to occur in a different source file (the original files are now restored).
The error is as follows:
../.././xgpc -B../.././ -c <...> <home>/gcc-2.95.3/gcc/p/rts/string.pas <home>/gcc-2.95.3/gcc/p/rts/string.pas: In procedure 'Upcasestring': <home><.....>/string.pas: 177: Internal compiler error in 'modified_type_die', at gcc-2.95.3/gcc/dwarf2out.c:6485
Can someone please help me with this? I really want to get this working, but have not been able to get around this bug.
If any further info is needed, let me know. Also, I have some experience programming in a variety of languages, etc., so if you need me to make changes/etc. and try things, I am open to suggestions -- I can at least try.
I am familiar with C, thouroughly enjoy Pascal, and am somewhat knowledgeable about UNIX (I have worked with Linux, Solaris, IRIX), so I can handle the OS for the most part as well.
Thank you for any help you can provide!
Also: I did not see another means of bug reporting, if there is one, let me know so that I can resubmit this in the appropriate way. Thank you.
