RE: compiling GPC on HP-UX - Gpc

17 Jan 2000


      I got gnu as; and it choked on gnu as with something like Â“as :
/var/tmp/xyz.s Â…. Something unknownÂ” on some *.c files.
I wiped the whole thing out so I no longer had the error messages.

But do you have GNU as? That's what your message complained about.
    If you configure with `--with-gnu-as' but without `--with-gnu-ld',
    it might work with GNU as and HP's ld.
