I have been suggested to try building the last alpha version of gpc instead of 19990118, called the current one on the official site. I tried to build on top of gcc-2.95.2 on a DEC Alpha computer.
"configure" runs without any warning, and without requiring any to aply any patch.
"make LANGUAGES=pascal" terminates prematurely with the following error message :
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `pascal', needed by `native'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory `/net2/ciceron2/ol/src/Install/gcc-2.95.2/gcc' make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2
Am I missing something ?

Yes, the gcc-2.95.2 instructions. Use configure --enable-languages=pascal instead of configure, if you only want Pascal (and C). make LANGUAGES=pascal is obsolete and no longer works.

Yes.
The information supplied with the GPC tarball is outdated, so I get into this trouble once. This is more or less what you have to do:
cd /usr/src tar xvfz gcc-2.95.2.tar.gz tar xvfz gpc-19991030.tar.gz mv gpc/p gcc-2.95.2/gcc/ mkdir gcc-2.95.2/gpc cd !$ ../configure
And this last command ask you for a patch to apply; just hit enter and that should work. Then:
make && make install
Have fun!!
