gcc building on IRIX 6.3 12161207 IP32

[Helge Dzierzon]

Hi helpers,

I tried to build the gcc-compiler on a IRIX ufobi8 6.3 12161207 
IP32. After Having a lot of warnings the builing process stopped with 
following message:

cfe: Error: ../../../zip/gcc-2.95/gcc/f/bld.c, line 979: Syntax Error
       return ({ double  lr;      lr = (ereal_unto_float ((((c)->u.real1)))) ; 
     (ereal_cmp ((lr), ( dconst0)) == 0) ;    }) ;
 --------------^
cfe: Error: ../../../zip/gcc-2.95/gcc/f/bld.c, line 979: Syntax Error
       return ({ double  lr;      lr = (ereal_unto_float ((((c)->u.real1)))) ; 
     (ereal_cmp ((lr), ( dconst0)) == 0) ;    }) ;
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------^


etc.


I had a look at "bld.c" but I'm very sure that I don't understand the 
trouble of the compiler.

Use `make bootstrap'.  Only the C front-end can be built with a
compiler other than GCC.

  ^^^ This is it.

You're trying to build the Fortran Frontend of GCC using the IRIX
compiler - that won't work; the FFE can only be build using gcc.

Use `make bootstrap' instead of just `make' in the build directory to
get this right.

This _is_ explained in the installation notes, though :-)

Cheers,
