Can you help me > urgently please. You're not the only one to have problems. I just downloaded the offical gcc 3.0 relaease and the current release of cygwin and also could not build. Here is the error message I (and others got) and one possible solution which seems to fix the problem. Corwin Steven Parry wrote: Hello, I hope someone can help! I'm trying to get a more-or-less std library compliant gcc version on my portable pc. I've installed cygwin fine, and have tried to install gcc3.0. It appeared to configure fine, but when doing a "make bootstrap", I get the following error (after a while): ../../gcc-3.0/gcc/config/i386/i386.md:289: unknown rtx code 'define_asm_attribut's ../../gcc-3.0/gcc/config/i386/i386.md:289: following context is ' [(set attr "length" "128")' make[2]@ ***[s-codes] Error 1 ... make: ***[bootstrap] Error 2 ---------------------- I just downloaded the GCC 3.0 official release and got the same error message. However, after more searches, it seems that some of the developers have seen the same problem. (see e.g. http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2001-03/msg00196.html ). Anyway, the problem seems to have something to do with carriage return versus line-feed under Cygwin. Here is what I did to fix the problem: Go to the directory for i386.md and execute the following commands: cat i386.md | tr -d '\r' > i386.out rm i386.md mv i386.out i386.md this seems to fix the problem and allowed the build to continue.
