Ok, Oh GPC & make masters...
I was a good little boy & spent the best part of a day downloading GCC-2.8.1 and GPC-19980830. This is what I did & the error I got...
Background Info: RH Linux 4.2 with GCC 2.7.2.1
1) gunzip GCC & GPC 2) untar GCC into /usr/src/gcc-2.8.1 3) untar gpc into /tmp/gpc 4) in the gcc source dir make a link ln -s p /tmp/gpc/p 5) apply the patch patch -p -s1 < p/gcc-2.8.1.diff 6) do in the gcc source dir configure -prefix=/usr 7) compile the thing in gcc source dir make LANGUAGES=pascal
OK... problem... This is what I get...
make[1]: entering directory '/tmp/gpc/p' make[1]: *** No rule to make target '../configure', needed by 'Makefile', stop. make[1]: leaving directory '/tmp/gpc/p' make: ***[gpc1] Error 2
Ok, oh mighty GPC wizards... What did I do wrong? Did I miss something?

Once I've succeeded in compiling GCC and GPC (when I had plenty of free disk space, unlike now )-: I remember that I had to abandom symlinks and move the gpc source tree to p subdirectory of GCC.
Hope that helps.

Marius, That seemed to help considerably. MAKE now worked to the point of compiling RTS. I think I didn't copy everything. Oh well, too tired to go on further tonight. Will continue tomorrow.
Later... Ken Linder
