I downloaded the gcc binaries and applied the A/UX patches to my gcc sources
including both gcc-1.35.aux.diffs and gcc-1.35.aux.patch.1. Unfortunately,
I am getting the following error on the first source file I try to compile:
make CC=gcc install
gcc -c -g -DAUX_ASM -I./config c-parse.tab.c
Assembler: /tmp/cca00589.s
aline 13915 : Warning: Table overflow: some optimizations lost (Labels)
aline 8707 : Symbol Table Stack Overflow
*** Error code 1
Stop.
Any suggestions?
I want to generate some of the object files because they are needed by g++.
Is the person within Apple who successfully created the gcc binaries working
on compiling g++?

(Maybe someday the AT&T chaps will learn how to use malloc and not use fixed-size tables. Maybe.) Compiling with -g causes the assembler to overflow its tables, hence the "symbol table stack" overflow. As the old joke goes, "It hurts when I do that" "Don't do that!". Taking out the -g flag will allow you to compile successfully.

Unfortunately, gcc is too big for the assembler to cope with if compiled with the -g option. Try changing CFLAGS to not include -g. > >I want to generate some of the object files because they are needed by g++. >Is the person within Apple who successfully created the gcc binaries working >on compiling g++? Well, I've got it to compile, but haven't had time to do more than that. If somebody else is interested I can give them the changes necessary to make it compile. **THIS IS NOT ENOUGH TO MAKE IT WORK** Unfortunately the coff'izing changes for g++ require the assembler to understand the .segment operator and the A/UX assembler doesn't. Somebody will have to cobble together something along the lines of the post loader or some such. Opinions: MINE, ALL MINE! (greedy evil chuckle) David W.
