[comp.parallel] Repost of old request -- gcc and/or g++ on iPSC/2?

grimlok (Mike Percy) (04/29/91)

A few months back, in the fall, I asked here if anyone had gcc and/or
g++ running on the iPSC/2, and would be willing and able to  help us get
it going on our cube.  I received a number of positive responses then,
but for space reasons, we were not able to make the attempt to add
another compiler on our cube.

Now that we have the space and people are asking me when I'm going to
work on getting gcc/g++ running, and Murphy's LAw in effect as always,
I've lost my mail log where I filed those responses.

So, here I go again.   If anyone out there has gcc and/or g++ running on
the iPSC/2 and would be willing to help us get it running here, please
let me know.  

Thanks.

We have gcc and g++ running on our iPSC/2.  I made some diffs and created
a config/tm-i386ipsc.h file to try and make it easy for someone to repeat
the process.  I expect I got quite a few things wrong about exactly what
the -host and -node options are supposed to do, but in any case, I'm gonna
put the diffs on the ipsc ftp site recently announced by J. Eric Townsend: 

karazm.math.uh.edu (129.7.7.6): pub/Parallel/Ipsc

If anyone else has suggestions or corrections to the diffs, you can send
them to me, and I'll be happy to coordinate them.
