It mostly fails at configure part but some of them fail during compilation. There are various error messages like: > > * ld does not support target > * This target is no longer supported in gas It is possible that some of these target triples should be added to the top level configure.ac file, in the code where it is constructing the noconfigdirs variable. > Maybe they are indeed bad triplets, Bad is a strong word. There are indeed ports where it is known that some of the tools are not supported. For example ports targeted at the darwin execution environment do not support either an assembler or a linker. > i don't know, but probably bfd/config.bfd is less strict than it should. Anyone any thoughts? Yeah - it probably could be more strict, but I do not think that it is really necessary. The builder is told that the configuration is not supported for the generation of a particular tool after all, even if it is a little bit late in the configure/build process. Cheers Nick
