           Summary: gengtype is not installed, but become a user [plugins
                    with GTY-s] program
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.6.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: other
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: bstarynk@gcc.gnu.org


in the current trunk, gengtype is now a user accessible program. It is needed
(with the gtype.state file) for users coding GCC plugins with GTY-s, to
generate the gt-plugin.h file from the users' plugin.h plugin1.c plugin2.c
files.

See http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-11/msg02591.html

It shold be installed, but I don't understand all the details. and I am not
able to provide a patch.

Apparently, gengtype should be compiled both for host & build, but I cannot
figure out how to do that and how to install it.

Regards.
