Problems building egcs-1.0.1 on HP/UX 10.20

Problems building egcs-1.0.1 on HP/UX 10.20

[Steinar Bang]

I first installed binutils 2.8.1 (compiled with the native cc
compiler).  

I then unpacked egcs-1.0.1, and configured it with the commands
	setenv CC cc
	./configure --prefix=/opt/pub --with-gnu-as

I then did a 
	make bootstrap
which failed at:

...
Building runtime libraries
	./makeinfo/makeinfo -I. texinfo.texi
Making info file `texinfo' from `texinfo.texi'.
	rm -f cpp
	ln cccp cpp
	echo '/*WARNING: This file is automatically generated!*/' >tmp-c-parse.y
	sed -e "/^ifobjc$/,/^end ifobjc$/d" \
	  -e "/^ifc$/d" -e "/^end ifc$/d" \
	  ./c-parse.in >>tmp-c-parse.y
	./move-if-change tmp-c-parse.y ./c-parse.y
./c-parse.y is unchanged
	if [ -f libgcc2.ready ] ; then \
		true; \
	else \
		touch libgcc2.ready; \
	fi
	cc -c  -DIN_GCC    -g   -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DHAIFA    -I. -I. -I./config underscore.c
	rm -f collect2
	cc  -DIN_GCC    -g   -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DHAIFA  -o collect2 collect2.o tlink.o hash.o \
	  cplus-dem.o underscore.o version.o choose-temp.o obstack.o alloca.o  
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Unsatisfied symbols:
   __main (code)
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.
*** Error exit code 1

Should I have configured egcs to use the gnu-ld as well? I seem to
recall the configuration of binutils telling me it couldn't create an
ld for HPPA...?

All hints/tips/etc. appreciated!

Thanx!

For some reason, make rebuilt files in the gcc directory that were already
(or should have been) up to date.  It used the wrong compiler when it did
this (cc instead of stage2/xgcc) which caused the link to fail.  The problem
here is that it should not have tried to rebuild the files.

Did you use GNU make?  If not, try that.  Many different non-GNU makes
have problems building gcc/egcs correctly.

Otherwise, is it possible that someone or something accidentally touched
one or more files in the source tree while you were building egcs?  If this
happened, it would cause the build to fail as described.

This is typical on an HPUX system.  The hpux make consistently
tries to rebuild files which are up-to-date.  This results in
various problems of this nature.

GNU make doesn't have this problem.

I have the same problem if I use the HP/UX make. gmake works fine.
