my goal is to compile X11.R4 for my macII running AUX 1.1. i thought i'd first get a decent compiler first. i ftp'ed the gcc distribution over from apple.com and followed the instructions in the README... file. (that is, i first copied the unoptimized, unpatched gcc-1.35 binaries into /usr/bin and /usr/lib, and then typed "make CC=gcc install.") however, my assembler is choking on the .s files. i get the following three errors in various combinations for all but two target files: Unbalanced Symbol Table Entries-Too Many Scope Beginnings Warning: Table overflow: some optimizations lost (Labels) Symbol Table Stack Overflow is the problem with the gcc binary or with as? where can i get new binaries which will work? what am i doing wrong? thanks in advance marg VOICE: w:212-854-5434 h:212-932-3023 | The important thing about a battleship INTERNET: marg@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu | is that it shoots.

Assuming the gcc- stuff is in /usr/local/lib then ln -s /usr/lib/big/as /usr/local/lib/gcc-as will help out. Also, I seem to remember that turning off -g also helped out... but I could be wrong. If you decide to build stages 2 and 3, then dont forget to add -DAUX_ASM to the stuff ./INSTALL says to type. -- -steveg@umd5.umd.edu ..!uunet!mimsy!umd5!steveg "Ignore the message: 'ld warning: file /tmp/kernAAAa06386 has no relocation information' if it appears."
