I can't use the script because I must use locally archived versions of all the packages: I can't download them. However you're right, I should have examined the script more carefully and reproduced its behavior more exactly inside my environment. I'll drop back to older versions for now. Note the patch attached to the bug I filed will allow GCC configure to work with both older and newer versions (at least insofar as configure and compile goes: I didn't verify that no new bugs were introduced in the newer MPFR). Might be worthwhile including in 4.6.3. Or not. Cheers! -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
