gcc 3.2x under irix6.3 (R5000)

[RenE J.V. Bertin]

Hello,

I have a problem building gcc 3.2.3 on an R5000 SGI O2 running irix 6.3 . 
Somewhere probably towards the end, ld gets a bus error when trying to link 
libstdc++ . I *am* using the system as command, and am now doing a last try 
with -mips4 -mcpu=R5000 -mabi=n32 in the building flags. Some more details 
in bug report 10801.

Any ideas? Or would anyone have a binary package that I could install (no 
tardist; I want this next to my gcc 3.2 o32 compiler!).

Thanks in advance.

The system ld or a new binutils ld?
I've been able to bootstrap without a problem on my 6.5.x box.

sorry. Not sure. Try the binaries link off of the gcc web page
(gcc.gnu.org)

I've been able to build gcc-3.2.3 on irix6.2 and irix6.5.  The only
special thing I've had to do is "setenv CONFIG_SHELL /bin/ksh" (or
setenv CONFIG_SHELL /your_path_to/bash) before running configure and
"make bootstrap".  Without this setting, sometimes you'll get a crash
building libstdc++ because /bin/sh is buggy, I don't know if this is
the same problem you're seeing, but give it a try.
