Errors Compiling GCC 3.2.2 on Fedora Core4

Errors Compiling GCC 3.2.2 on Fedora Core4

[Mike Gatford]

Hi,

I'm having trouble compiling GCC 3.2.2 on Fedora Core 4.

I have untarred the source to:

/export/packages/gcc/gcc3.2.2

I have created the directory

/export/packages/gcc/objdir

I cd into /export/packages/gcc/objdir and type

/export/packages/gcc/gcc3.2.2/configure

and then

make bootstrap

I eventually get the error:

make[2]: Entering directory `/export/packages/gcc/objdir/gcc'

make[1]: *** [stage1_build] Error 2

I have gcc 4.0.0 installed on teh box too.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Edit the file include/obstack.h in the gcc-3.2.2 source package. Go to 
line 423 and change it from:
*((void **)__o->next_free)++ = ((void *)datum); \
to:
*((void **)__o->next_free) = ((void *)datum); \
and add the line
__o->next_free += sizeof(void *); \
immediately beneath.

Don't forget the "\" at the ends of the lines after the ";". They are 
part of the code. I did this on FC4 after having the exact same 
problems. Everything compiled and installed fine after that. This patch 
comes from Adrian Reber 
(https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-extras-list/2005-March/msg01037.html)
