[comp.os.vms] Looking for GNU C

ferrill@EGLIN-VAX.ARPA ("JAMES P. FERRILL") (05/18/88)

Dear Netlanders,

  I would like to obtain a copy of GNU C for the VAX under VMS.  Does anyone
have a working copy that I could FTP or that could be HEXified and mailed?
I have a copy of the source but no way to compile it..  The proverbial chicken
and egg problem.  Any help or direction would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Paul Ferrill

The Free Software Foundation is now making VMS GNU C tapes -- it consists
of the sources and a bootstrap compiler (which can then be used to make
any NEW versions of GNU C).  Due to space limitations on the MIT machines,
GCC for VMS is not available for FTP.  If somebody wishes to volunteer a
machine on which to place it, please let me know.
