So could the configure script error out earlier, then, if it is passed
--enable-fixed-point for a target other than MIPS?

I'm going to re-title and self-assign on that basis.

...ok, so wait, looking at gcc/configure.ac, it looks like there's already code
to ignore --enable-fixed-point for unsupported targets? (current list of
supported targets is arm, mips, and loongarch, for reference)
Furthermore, it looks like that code has been there since Chao-ying Fu first
added the flag in r0-82714-gab22c1fa94acc0... so why didn't it work and result
in the flag being properly ignored? I just checked again and the error still
occurs; now it reads:

--- Comment #10 from Eric Gallager <egallager at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Current code is like this:

# Enable C extension for fixed-point arithmetic.
AC_ARG_ENABLE(fixed-point,
[AS_HELP_STRING([--enable-fixed-point],
                [enable fixed-point arithmetic extension to C])],
[],
[
  case $target in
    arm*)
      enable_fixed_point=yes
      ;;

    mips*-*-*)
      enable_fixed_point=yes
      ;;
    loongarch*-*-*)
      enable_fixed_point=yes
      ;;
    *)
      AC_MSG_WARN([fixed-point is not supported for this target, ignored])
      enable_fixed_point=no
      ;;
  esac
])
AC_SUBST(enable_fixed_point)

Let's check the documentation for AC_ARG_ENABLE:
https://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.71/html_node/Package-Options.html

So, argument 3 is used if the flag is given, and argument 4 is used when the
flag is *not* given... so when it says "ignored" in the warning, there's
nothing being ignored, because the flag wasn't actually given... perhaps the
3rd and 4th arguments just need to be swapped?

So this patch needs some more work; it might take awhile before I get to fixing
it though... should I unassign? I still intend to get back to this later, but I
just want to make sure that people are clear that they can give it a try
themselves in the meantime...

...ok yeah I think I'm going to unassign; if anyone thinks they can address the

[Bug target/34422] Bootstrap error with --enable-fixed-point

[bernard at brenda-arkle dot me dot uk]

------- Comment #3 from bernard at brenda-arkle dot me dot uk  2008-10-17 21:08 -------
I've seen this with 4.3.1 and 4.3.2 official releases with (as it happens)
athlon-64 again (but 32-bit Linux).  But then I also saw it with 4.3.1
on a pure Pentium4 system, so I don't think it's really 64-bit specific.
I've *never* built successfully with --enable-fixed-point .

[tom_t at gmx dot at]

------- Comment #2 from tom_t at gmx dot at  2008-03-11 09:32 -------
Hello

I got the same problems using the 4.3.0 release as well as with the current 4.4
snapshot (20080307).

Is there any workaround? Or any version where --enable-fixed-point actually
works? I tried 4.2.3, which compiled fine, but the resulting compiler doesn't
support the extensions...
