This patch gets around the test for gl*bc (in gcc 3.2) -- there appear to be other places where portability is tossed out the window, but at least configure gets more done before it hits the next unportable section. *** config.if~ Tue Nov 19 10:48:10 2002 --- config.if Tue Nov 19 10:48:58 2002 *************** *** 63,71 **** rm -f $dummy.c $dummy else # It should never happen. ! echo "Cannot find the GNU C library minor version number." >&2 rm -f $dummy.c $dummy ! exit 1 fi else # Cross compiling.

Note that CVS mainline includes fixes needed for libc5 (and probably also libc4) which aren't on the 3.2 branch, so is probably a more appropriate base to work from on this. -- Joseph S.

Well, that was almost 6 months ago, and so cvs has become 3.3. Would it be possible for you to check if this issue is still in gcc 3.3? Thanks, Dara
