From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Horst von Brand To: egcs@cygnus.com Subject: egcs-970828: Some nits Date: Wed, 03 Sep 1997 03:37:00 -0000 Message-id: <199709030345.XAA26447@sleipnir.valparaiso.cl> X-SW-Source: 1997-09/msg00089.html - At least with gcc-2.7.2.2.f.2 under Linux, it won't build by 'make': The spec file created in .../gcc/ is picked up by gcc (?!), which doesn't like it at all. Workaround is to copy gcc's spec in there, and build by hand (stage by stage): First stage, then 'rm spec; make spec' and then second and third stages. 'make compare' is silent for '-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -mpentium' here. - Line 2201 of ...gcc/invoke.texi contains your address with a single '@' in it, makeinfo chokes on that and kills the installation - It would be nice to install as something like 'gcc-2.8.0' &c, so it doesn't kill your setup - What happened to the ChangeLog files? I've only got .10 and .11 for gcc, it seems a lot of history got lost... - The output of './configure --help' isn't the most helpful ;-) - Please don't bundle this much stuff into the distributions, you might as well assume people are able to get texinfo &c on their own. OK, let's test this baby some now. Seems that executables/objects are somewhat larger than my older gcc with '-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -m486 -malign-{jumps,loops,functions}=2' (standard kernel compile options), compared to '-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -mpentium' on the new one. At least, gcc has learned to count malign entities by itself now ;-) -- Horst von Brand vonbrand@sleipnir.valparaiso.cl Casilla 9G, Viqa del Mar, Chile +56 32 672616
