...to report its "full" version info, by reverting HJ Lu's patch
of a few days ago, then I believe it is also necessary to fix
gcc/testsuite/lib/g77.exp
to supply the appropriate `-Bpathname/' option (before -v), where
pathname is the same as in the command `pathname/g77 -v' as is
currently invoked.
IMO, this change should be made for all situations where -v is
used to get version info, to ensure the right copy of the `specs'
file gets picked up.
I don't know enough about the language these files are written
in (`expect', presumably) to fix these myself.
tq vm, (burley)

I just noticed that g77 -v reports itself as 'gcc'. Shouldn't it be g77?
Cheers,

It reports as `g77' on my screen, though the containing gcc driver
code than reports itself as `gcc'. (This is unrelated to whether
HJ Lu's patch to inhibit traditional operation of `g77 -v' is
installed, BTW.)

g77 -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-pc-linux-gnu/egcs-2.90.29/specs
gcc version egcs-2.90.29 980515 (egcs-1.0.3 release)
This is what I get!
Cheers,
Alex

Oh, I didn't realize you were using egcs 1.0.3. `g77 -v' acts
more like g77 0.5.2[0123] etc. in egcs now, which should be how
it works when 1.1 is released. The other drivers (g++ etc.)
might or might not be changed to be more like g77.

I don't know tcl all that well either. I managed to hammer g77.exp
into submission though.
Unfortunately we have to use a totally different interface to get the
compiler to run with all the magic flags. And that interface returns
the output from the compile in a different manner too. Ugh.
Anyway, I think it'll start reporting stuff now. I only bothered to
get the version # from the driver itself. Folks with interest can
try to dig out other version information if they think it's worth the
time/effort.
