Hi All I've found 20000401 snapshot and tried to build it on my Solaris 8 x86 box. I faced following problems: 1. there are bash extensions like ! [ ... ] used in Makefiles: - Make-lang-2.95.in, - Make-lang-old.in, - Make-lang.in, and - Make-lang - but this one belongs to gcc distribution. In result some precompiled objects do not install. 2. xgpc failed to compile rts modules like heap.pas etc.: ../.././xgpc -B../.././ -c -I. -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wwrite-strings -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -g -O2 -DRTS_RELEASE_STRING="'__GPC_RTS_VERSION_`cat /export/home/admin/soft/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/p/rts/rts_release`__'" -DBSD_RTS=0 `if [ x"@with_shared@" = xyes ] ; then echo -fPIC; fi` --unit-path=/export/home/admin/soft/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/p/rts --automake heap.pas xgpc: Internal compiler error: program gpc1 got fatal signal 11 gpc1: ../.././xgpc exited with status 1 The workaround was to remove RTS_WARN flag in p/rts/Makefile 3. GNU make and M4 are necessary to build GPC, but this is a minor problem as we all use GNU tools. Now to link a Pascal program I have to either, use --automake/build, or specify objects it depends on. What is the reason for this modification? Is there any switch to force GPC to find necessary units without --automake/build, as it was before? Thanks in advance for any suggestions? -- .
