Trying to compile gcc2.95.1

While doing make bootstrap....

This is one reason I want to upgrade my compiler.  I did get qt 2.0 to
compile but I had to disable optimize. I do want to optimize since going
to all the trouble to compile.  So, this is the main reason for
upgrading to gcc.2.95.1

What's wrong with this compiler?  Do I even need a native compiler to
compile gcc-full?  It say you must have automake, autoconfig, and
binutils, what else?

This has got me so confused I don't know what to do.  I can't compile
shit without going through a lot of trouble to get it to work.  Then
it's not compiled the way I want it; such as, no optimized code.  I can
find no updates for Slackware native packages anywhere; only newer or
beta distributions.  Must I upgrade my slackware distribution everytime
I need an overhaul?  Beside, that won't work cause the latest beta don't
include what I want to install.

My system:  233mhz Cyrix, 96megs ram, two 120meg swap partitions, and a
full Slackware 4.0 install.

Note:  if I install binaries, well that would NOT fix my compiler
problem, now would it.

My current gcc usually dumps out most large g++ sources.  Has anyone had
this problem?


Thanks,
