Hi, guys,
I am trying to build gcc-3.3.6 from Index of /mirrors/gcc/releases/gcc-3.3.6 (bigsearcher.com)<https://bigsearcher.com/mirrors/gcc/releases/gcc-3.3.6/> ,
the following error message occurred. Could you please tell me how to fix it?
My host computer: Dell Inspiron 16 plus 7630.
GCC on host: gcc (Ubuntu 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 11.4.0
under WSL.
Why do I want to build gcc-3.3.6? because I want to use it to build Linux Kernel 2.4.36. It was requested to build Linux Kernel 2.4.36 with the GCC version < 4.2. (please see: home/dingjun/build_cross_gcc/linux-2.4.36/include/linux/compiler.h:45:2: error: #error "GCC >= 4.2 miscompiles kernel 2.4, do not use it!"
45 | #error "GCC >= 4.2 miscompiles kernel 2.4, do not use it!")
I tried several gcc version (<4.2) and almost each one has some errors. Could you some tell me which gcc(<4.2 version) source codes are 100% sure to be built without errors?
Thanks & regards,
Dingjun

I expect that none of the ancient versions will build without errors using
modern compilers. Modern compilers are stricter and reject code that was
accepted in ancient times.
It looks like the error below is in the fortran compiler. If you don't need
Fortran and other languages, disable them with --enable-languages=c to only
build a C compiler.

Hi again, Jonathan,
I configured gcc-3..3.6 with "./configure --enable-languages=c",
However, an error occurred and please see below. Could you tell me how to proceed and fix it?
Thanks,
