[Bug bootstrap/15435] New: bootstrap / install / fixinc fails on HPUX 11.11/11.00/10.20 with gsyslimits.h

For some reason bootstrap (to be exact install phase) does remove gsyslimits.h
while gcc 3.4.0 is being installed on HPUX platform. There was no problems what
so ever to install 3.4.0 on Solaris (2.6 and 8) and Linux (glibx 2.2 and 2.3).
On HPUX though last few lines from screen before installation is stoped are:

(Example from HPUX 11.00 "make install" phase)

echo timestamp > full-stamp
./fixincl -v < /dev/null
'fixincl version 1.1'
chmod 755 ../fixinc.sh
make[3]: Leaving directory
`/tmp_mnt/share/wrk/tikkanen/maketus/gcc340/hp11/gcc/fixinc'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `gsyslimits.h', needed by `stmp-fixinc'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp_mnt/share/wrk/tikkanen/maketus/gcc340/hp11/gcc'
make[1]: *** [stage1_build] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp_mnt/share/wrk/tikkanen/maketus/gcc340/hp11/gcc'
make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2

However there is a fix to this (or should it be called hack): Before giving
"configure"-command one should set environment variable MVPROG to value cp
(setenv MVPROG cp). By default the MVPROG is "mv" which just sounds very
natural. For some unfortune reason the default value does not work in HPUX though.

There were no similar problems to compile and install gcc 3.3.3 (or earlier) on
the same HPUX machine and thus this error is first seen in 3.4.0 where to
configure-system is renoved somehow. To my surprise the very same "hack" was
needed to install latest GDB (Gnu debugger) version 6.1 (I have never tried with
6.0, but 5.3 installed just OK back when I did the installation) which seems to
have also changed to similar kind of configure-configuration that 3.4.0 is
using. So problem may be holed up in the configure-confguration-platform used by
both of the tools.

hmm, either install-sh is doing something wrong or someone wrote stuff wrong in the Makefile, I would 
rather say the former.

John, this is a HPUX bug. Can you provide a little help about this? Can you at 
least confirm this?

Thanks

It is not a problem that I have experienced.  gsyslimits.h should be in
the gcc source directory.  Using `cp' instead of `mv' is definitely
wierd and might cause problems doing make bootstrap.  Fix includes runs
in stage1, never during an install.

I always use GNU tools for my builds (make, sed, awk, bash, flex,
bison, ...).  Also, I never build in the source directory.  I believe
that it's important to use GNU make and sed.  It's also important to have
the latest HP linker patch.  If the user does this, I'm sure that
he will be successfully able to build and install GCC.  There are more
details in the installation documentation.

I isn't much chance in duplicating this without knowing the details of
the configure command, the tools being used, the build directory, etc.
