Gcc 1.36 is now available for anonymous ftp from apple.com. The following is from /pub/gnu/README.gcc.aux: Unfortunately, the A/UX native compiler suite has fixed size tables, some of which are too small to allow it to compile gcc. To get around this problem, a binary distribution of gcc-1.36 is provided for A/UX. This is a complete, ready to install build of gcc-1.36 for A/UX. It was compiled with gcc-1.36 (ie., it's a stage3 build) with optimization turned on and AUX_ASM defined. In order to rebuild gcc-1.36 from the sources you need to: 1. Get the binary distribution of gcc-1.36. It can be found in gcc-1.36.aux.bin.Z on the same machine you found the sources. 2. Place "gcc" off the binary distribution in /usr/local/bin or other directory on your execution path. 3. Place all the other files and directories in the binary distribution in /usr/local/lib. 4. Set up the configuration files to build an a/ux version. sh config.gcc aux 5. Build and install gcc. make CC=gcc install Or for the paranoid amongst you make CC=gcc bootstrap install Bug reports should be sent to dwb@apple.com if they appear to be in the A/UX port, or the appropriate individuals of the FSF if they appear to be in the basic compiler. Be warned that due to the current fanaticism by FSF any bug reports mentioning A/UX or Apple are likely to be ignored... David
