RE: How to include a front end to gcc ?

Hi Greicy,

> I installed the GMP end MPFR. The versions are shown below and as well the result the configure and the make booststrap:

Although this may not be relevant to your issue at hand, have you tried to let GMP and MPFR be built by GCC?

As per the alternative having them built together with GCC:
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html

GMP...
"""
Alternatively, if a GMP source distribution is found in a subdirectory of your GCC sources named gmp, it will be built together with GCC. 
"""

MPFR...
"""
Alternatively, if a MPFR source distribution is found in a subdirectory of your GCC sources named mpfr, it will be built together with GCC.

In general, I've found this alternative to be better (more reliable) than having GMP and MPFR pre-built.

You may want to consider also asking your GCC configuration questions on the MSYS and MinGW forum(s).  Not that this forum is an inappropriate forum, but there are probably GCC particulars that require special understanding to build and use GCC in the MSYS and/or MinGW situation.

I do not use MSYS or MinGW*, so I do not have specialized knowledge for that situation.

* I have nothing against them, and would definitely use them if I had a need for them.

Okay.

It appears that gcc-4.2.4/gcc/hello-world/Make-lang.in is missing.
