We don't know. Nobody's actually tried it... Well, maybe one person, but I don't know what version of GNAT and EGCS he was working with or how much time he spent on it. > The gnat-3.10p-src/gcc-2721.dif seems to contain patches > that have already been applied to EGCS. Most, if not all of those patches should be in EGCS. However, other changes made since gcc-2.7 may prevent GNAT from building. > not checked every last one of them.

Folding in GNAT is one of our long term goals; anything you can do to help us reach that goal would be greatly appreciated. I'll help as much as I can :-) > I'm trying to build for mips-irix6.3, mips-irix5.3, rs6k-aix3.2, > alpha-osf3.2, sparc-solaris2.5, and sparc-sunos4.1.3.

There's been a report of some problems with mips-sgi-irix5.2 which occur due to -lmalloc. I don't know if those might be related to your irix5.3 problems. As for the misaligned data error -- can you provide some more details? What program got the misaligned data error? jeff
