help building for powerpc-eabi under cygwin

[Marc Schafer]

I have already configured and built the following for powerpc-eabi:
binutils 2.14
gcc 3.3.1
newlib 1.11

I have not been able to build Insight.  I checked the code out from cvs as described on the readme page for cygwin.  I
did not use the branch but took the latest version instead.  The 2003-02-05 update made it sound like it was no longer
necessary to revert the tcl/tk parts so I skipped steps 2 and 3.  The build failed in the tcl stuff, so I went back and
performed step 2 and then tried configuring and building again.

It fails in exactly the same place during the tcl build.  The last few lines of the make output are attached.

Can you tell me how to fix this problem?

thanks,
marc

So what did you check out? Trunk or a branch?

You should use the gdb 6.0 branch for best results. I've once again
heard rumors on the gdb list that a release of 6.0 is imminent. (Of
course, it was imminent several months ago, too. Nonetheless, I
recommend using the 6.0 branch.) Use the branch "gdb_6_0-branch" to
check out those sources.

tclCmdAH.c:670 is the very last line of Tcl_ExitObjCmd (after the
"return TCL_OK;"). This again beckons me to ask: what version of insight
are you building? What command did you use to check it out (or what
tarball did you download)?
