To append info to a GNATS entry, make sure you CC: gcc-gnats@gcc.gnu.org, and make sure that the Subject: field of your e-mail contains the GNATS ID for the Problem Report, ie. "Subject: Re: Re: bootstrap/3641: can not bootstrap on....." If you can figure out a good place to put this in documentation, I'll write a patch for it. > I talked to Richard Henderson about this, and for my problem (which > involved glibc 2.2.3 or 2.2.4) the correct solution was to make a > libc-headers package instead of modifying GCC.

There is a patch very similar to what you are talking about, but meant to address the problem of bootstrapping on older versions of glibc. I submitted this patch, to detect the existence of ucontext.h in the configure script: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2001-10/msg01543.html The next part of the patch, which I have not tested yet is here: http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view&pr=4068&database=gcc Does that patch look like it would work for your problem? -- Craig Rodrigues http://www.gis.net/~craigr rodrigc@mediaone.net
