It needs to work reasonably with that one. This doesn't necessarily follow. Solaris' /bin/sh, for example, has a bug that causes it to *sometimes* crash while running ltconfig. Being too slow when processing certain constructs present in libstdc++-v3/configure is arguably a performance bug in whatever shell you're running, and setting CONFIG_SHELL to some more efficient shell is a possible work-around. -- Alexandre Oliva Enjoy Guarana', see http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/ Red Hat GCC Developer aoliva@{cygnus.com, redhat.com} CS PhD student at IC-Unicamp oliva@{lsd.ic.unicamp.br, gnu.org} Free Software Evangelist *Please* write to mailing lists, not to me From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Alexandre Oliva To: kenner@vlsi1.ultra.nyu.edu (Richard Kenner) Cc: gcc@gcc.gnu.org Subject: Re: Top-level Makefile Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2001 08:01:00 -0000 Message-ID: References: <10111291444.AA22195@vlsi1.ultra.nyu.edu> X-SW-Source: 2001-11/msg01554.html Message-ID: <20011129080100.HN08qwynwFnrKyAL0rxMtqPh_s--zejIuKMS2BkMSjo@z> On Nov 29, 2001, kenner@vlsi1.ultra.nyu.edu (Richard Kenner) wrote: > Try some more efficient shell, such as bash or at least ksh. > Well, the shell script has #!/bin/sh" in the first line, so that's the > one that's going to be used.
