[gnu.gcc] gcc Miniframe port

jcd@pitt.UUCP (Jim Durham) (05/05/89)

I have a version of cc on my Miniframe that understands only 8 significant
chars in a variable name.

I was hoping that gcc would be the answer. I was able to get gcc
compiled and running, but 'as' bombs complaining of an illegal
argument, '6'.

I looked at 'gas', only to see that it is available only for the
68020. The Miniframe is a 68010.

I suspect that the linked (ld) will probably also bomb, as it
certainly works only with 8 char symbols also.

I am new at compilers. Does anyone have a suggestion, other than
burning the Miniframe?

Thanks
