How to build a full compiler on Solaris 9

How to build a full compiler on Solaris 9

I wasn't sure where to send something like this so I'll just fire it off
into wherever this email address goes.  After a lot of hair pulling I
finally have a working version of 3.3.3 for Solaris 9 with all available
compilers available.  (Including GNAT)  I kept a record of everything I had
to do and I figured it might be useful to others.  It's attached to this
email.

Note that GNAT doesn't (officially) support multilib-ed configurations.

# /usr/ccs/bin/make should be renamed until the 1st build is over so GNU make 
in /usr/local/bin is used

This is dangerous.  The standard way on non-GNU systems is to name GNU make 
'gmake' and invoke it whenever 'make' should be invoked.

# /root/build/gcc-3.3.3/libjava/java/net/natInetAddress.cc needs: #define 
MAXHOSTNAMELEN  256

It shouldn't, which suggests there is a configuration problem here.  Could 
you post the config.log from the libjava directory?

You should need neither to run 'make gnatlib_and_tools' twice, nor to 
manually compile some files in ada/rts.  Looks like some dependency problems 
here.

# Install the compiler (Run weird 'make install' bug stuff 1st)
mkdir libf2c
ln -s ../install-sh
make install

You probably didn't configure with an absolute path.


Be sure to strictly follow the procedure described at:
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#*-*-solaris2*

In particular, check the /usr/xpg4/bin vs /usr/bin stuff.

Try to set CONFIG_SHELL to /bin/ksh somewhere earlier instead.
