Hello netland, I need to run C++ on my DecStation 5000/200. Has GNU C++ been ported to Ultrix/Risc? If anyone has this running in this configuration or a similar(sp) one, I would greatly appreciate details of where you got the distribution and how hard was it to install... Thanks in advance efinley@peruvian.utah.edu (Elliot Finley)

I tried to many times, but I failed. I finally got g++ to compile, as well as its library, but when trying to make groff it died *while compiling* ("unaligned access"). I give up. I don't really think g++ is made for Ultrix/mips (as it says in one of its readme files).

I built the version from foobar.colorado.edu in pub/Gnu-For-Pmax
(gcc-1.9.2.13 and g++-1.9.2.11). Mail from meissner said for gcc you
have to edit gcc.c near line 1298 and change > 3 to >= 3. Similarly,
for g++ you must make the same change near line 1289 of gcc.c.
Following the directions in the makefiles for MIPS and COFF I then
made a system that built libg++-1.37.2(xtar) from labrea and also
built groff. It all seems to be working well.
