I am trying to build C and C++ compilers on an IBM box running aix 5.2. I downloaded the gcc-3.3.4 and binutils binaries from UCLA to run my bootstrap build. I ran configure --enable-threads=aix --enable-languages=c,c++ from my objdir. I then ran make bootstrap-lean. After all of this runs for about a day and a half and then it fails with:
checking for C compiler default output... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C compiled
programs.
If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
See `config.log' for more details.
make[1]: *** [configure-target-libstdc++-v3] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/webapps/gnu'
make: *** [bootstrap-lean] Error 2
I noticed that in the objdir there is a directory named gcc with my g++ compiler, but there is no gcc compiler in this directory, nor anywhere else under the objdir. I am also not sure which config.log I should be looking for, there seems to be more than one. Also I am not trying to cross compile (I don't think I am at least).
I am trying to build this compiler, so I can compile sleepycats db on aix 5.2. I may never use it again after this. Is there an easier way?
Thanks,
Louis M. Burroughs III, OCTO

Louis,
If this is the first time you are trying to get gcc to build on AIX and do not
have a lot of time, I would recommend you get the prebuild version of gcc from
bullfreeware.com:
http://www.bullfreeware.com/work_main.html
Enjoy.

Thanks, I tried bullfreeware but ran into troubles installing using smit
(It wanted a user named "freeware" or something like that for part of the
install). I sent an issue to support, but did not recieve a reply. I was
also concerned about the version, UCLA is on gcc 3.3.4, but is built only
up to AIX5.1, Bull is on gcc 3.3.2, but is built for AIX 5.2.
Thanks for replying,
