970929 snapshot on SCO

970929 snapshot on SCO

[Bill Walker]

This is snapshot 970929

 
 I am using SCO OSR 5.0.2d, with SCO's development system on
 an Altos 17000 with 4 processors.
 
 I was able to build egcs from the September 9 snapshot, but have
 not been able to build it with any later snapshot.
 
 Any ideas ?

Waaah.  I want four processors. :-)   I'm glad to see more SCO
users on this list.   It'll help keep Kean and myself from feeling 
so alone.

This has been discussed in the group before.   Look in the egcs mailing
list archives for conversations involving Jason and myself.

The summary of problem is that OpenServer generates both COFF and ELF
and when the new Dwarf2 unwinding stuff was added, it used features
that aren't available in the OpenServer COFF tools (long section names
and forward references are the two that are biting you right now, but
there are more to come. :-)   There are at least a couple of ways 
around it, and some of them are described in the thread titled:
	"controlling exception type per target"
You should also blow through the thread titled:
	"970917 eh problems - bootstrap failure"

I've asked for guidance on implementing a Better Way, but right now, 
the simplest solution is to edit defaults.h and change the #define of
DWARF2_UNWIND_INFO from 1 to 0.  Do not undef it.

My make bootstrap of 0929 on 5.0.4 with this kludge just finished
scant moments ago.

Enjoy.

I believe this problem has been fixed for the next snapshot.

I've been a little sloppy about testing every snapshot on OpenServer
lately, but now that the necessary patches have been accepted in the 
masters, increasing the chances of someone else also seeing success, 
I will be more aggressively testing it once again.

So, stay tuned.    Things will get different on OpenServer with the 
next snapshot. :-)
