Hi,
How can I change the version number (from 3.0 to 3.0-xzzyx)? I looked in
configure.in and Makefile.in but neither seemed to have it.
How do I build a bunch of source tarballs for distribution? make dist
doesn't work an says "Check out the etc/ subdirectory". I tried
cvs co etc
didn't work
cvs co gcc/etc
worked but the etc/ was empty.
Ideally I want the multi-tarball distribution (gcc-code, gcc-c++,
gcc-java...).

Look in maintainer-scripts. The update_version script shows where this
is changed.

I don't believe make dist is used for GCC. (The GCC build structure predates
a lot of what we think of as common practice.) Right now there's a bunch
of release scripts on the gcc.gnu.org machine, but I don't think they're
in CVS... ?

Err. And I can find this where?

Do you have any suggestions on the best way to make a source dist? I
guess I could do a make clean and just tar the whole thing up. But I would
like a proper dist (ie with all the install docs etc. built and in the
right place).

You'll probably have to check it out explicitly. In fact, now that I
think about it, you'll definitely have to request it; it's not part of
the normal GCC modules. I apologize for the oversight.

No, 'fraid not... Jeff and Mark usually handle that kind of thing. Guys?
