Hello! After applying the new patch to the gcc-2.8.1 source code the gpc-19980830 compiler is now built by gcc-2.8.1 without any errors. When compiling the Pascal-programs in the "test" directory, however, most of the programs cannot be correctly compiled by gpc, because there are apparently some unresolved references in libgpc.a (see below an excerpt from the screen!). Is there a parameter file missing?
