building gcc3.0.1 with aCC

building gcc3.0.1 with aCC

[thomas.porschberg]

I want to build gcc3.0.1 on a HP-UX11.
There is only a aCC on this machine, so I tried to do the make with this
compiler. The configure-script run successful, but the make itself failed.

What is the best way to overcome the following error message?

hp-sport(pberg):/opt/gcc-3.0.1> make bootstrap-lean                           
        if [ x"" != x ]; then \
          aCC -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -I. -I./../include    argv.c -o pic/argv.o; \
        else true; fi
        aCC -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -I. -I./../include   argv.c
Error 375: "argv.c", line 91 # Declaration does not match any parameter in

Looks like it's a C++ compiler, so you're out of luck, because GCC is
written using old-style function definitions so that it can be built
even with K&R C compilers.

Perhaps you can download a pre-compiled GCC for your platform?

You could try the bundled c compiler, it may work for you. 
Except if you want to make a 64 bit gcc..

You can get a reasonably new one from http://hpux.ee.ualberta.ca , or
a 64 bit one from http://ice.mudshark.org
