Hi, Alan!

make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/temp/gcc-2.8.0/p/rts' ../../xgpc -B../../ --automake -c -DGPC -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wmissing-prototy pes -Wmissing-declarations -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -I. -I../.. -I/tmp/temp/gcc -2.8.0/p/rts/../.. -I/tmp/temp/gcc-2.8.0/p/rts/../../config rts-base.p make[1]: *** [rts-base.o] IOT trap/Abort (core dumped)

This *might* be a rather trivial problem with the version number. Please retry with a changed `p/version.c' that contains a line

char *version_string = "2.8.0";

instead of

char *version_string = GPC_VERSION_STRING;

Good luck,

Peter
