PS: I think I recall Jim W. specifically mentioning that some
versions of 7.0 had bugs which caused cc -n32 to fail bootstrapping gcc.
This came up in our discussion about the o32/n32 libiberty problem but
you'd have to ask him or search the archives back through last November
to get details.

Now that you mention it, I think I recall that too. I'm not sure he
was talking about version 7.0, but I'm pretty sure he mentioned the
buggyness of -n32 on some IRIX compilers. Well, I'll keep trying :-)
It's good to know that, even though cc -n32 is so broken, we can still
get a working compiler out of it.

7.1 is the worst of the versions 6.2, 7.0, and 7.1. My installation
supposedly upgraded to 7.2.1 a week ago but I don't see any fixes for
documented bugs of 7.2.

I've had success with cc -n32 when bootstrapping on Irix 6.2.
I don't know if the version of the compiler is tied to the OS or not.
What version of the compiler are you using?

Dunno, how can I find it out? I tried various command-line flags and
nothing helped. I even looked at the manual! :-D

No way. We don't have it. In fact, I believe we've got this old
compiler because people forgot to buy it and someone found us
miserable enough to give us a license for it :-)
Moreover, no one really uses cc here; the only use I have for it is to
test egcs :-)

Thanks. I get:
oliva@duerer% versions | grep c_dev
I c_dev 11/12/97 C, 7.0
Pretty old, huh? :-(

Dunno, how can I find it out? I tried various command-line flags and
nothing helped. I even looked at the manual! :-D

All versions of SGI C before v7.1beta have bugs that cause gcc to be
miscompiled when using the -n32 option.
With SGI C v7.0, there was only one bug that I found. It miscompiles a little
bit of code in one of the optimization passes, with the result that the
optimization does not happen. You still get correct code though. Hence
you can successfully bootstrap if you go a fourth stage.
stage1: compiled with one optimization disabled
stage2: compiled OK, but only partially optimized
stage3: compiled OK, and completely optimized
stage4: compiled OK, and completely optimized
I don't recall what the v7.0 bug was. I reported it to SGI about 3 years ago,
and it was fixed by v7.1beta about 3 years ago.
As far as I know, all versions from v7.1beta and later are OK.

I've had success with cc -n32 when bootstrapping on Irix 6.2.
I don't know if the version of the compiler is tied to the OS or not.
What version of the compiler are you using?

Can anyone else confirm that it's not just my cc for IRIX 6.3 that's
broken? I've never been able to bootstrap egcs with `cc -n32' (the
-n32 is needed for libiberty); it always fails `make compare' for all
object files (I haven't really checked if some are missing, but the
list of failures is huge). Then, if a proceed with `bootstrap2', it
moves the stage3 compiler into stage2, builds a new stage3 and then
compare succeeds. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Is this
expected? Do we care about fixing it, or should we just document it
and put the blame on SGI? :-)
