           Summary: MinGW Bootstrap Failure: 3.4 20031015
           Product: gcc
           Version: 3.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: bootstrap
        AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
        ReportedBy: stl at caltech dot edu
                CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org
 GCC build triplet: i686-pc-mingw32
  GCC host triplet: i686-pc-mingw32
GCC target triplet: i686-pc-mingw32

In /c/temp/gcc/build, I ran:

/c/temp/gcc/src/configure --prefix=/c/temp/gcc/dest --enable-languages=c,c++ --
enable-sjlj-exceptions --enable-threads=win32 --disable-win32-registry --
disable-shared --without-newlib --disable-nls --disable-debug

This worked.  Then I ran:

make "CFLAGS=-O2" "LDFLAGS=-s -Wl,--stack=0x00800000" profiledbootstrap

This eventually said:

echo '/*WARNING: This file is automatically generated!*/' >tmp-c-parse.y

  mv -f c-p$$.c c-parse.c ; \
else \
  rm -f c-p$$.* ; \
  false ; \
fi

Did you read the error message?

But I didn't modify any files, much less any .y files.  I used the unmodified 
snapshot.

If you are building a gcc release, then you don't need bison.

If you build gcc from any other source, such as a snapshot, then you may 
need bison.  This is covered in our FAQ
	http://gcc.gnu.org/faq.html#generated_files
The text is a bit dated, since it implies snapshots are OK, but they 
aren't anymore.

I see, thanks.  My fault, not gcc's (though the error message is rather 
misleading).
