[gnu.gcc] gcc/g++ on apollos ??

    Does gcc/g++ (with coff support) runs on apollo sr10 ? Does it
requires changes ? And in that case, has anybody made them ?

    I am currently running sr9.7, and i don't have gcc 1.32, so i
can't try by myself. But one of our project requires g++ ;
should i upgrade to sr10 or try to find a sun :-) ?

    Many Thanks in advance,

we have had the same dillemma and ,as of now, we do not have any way
to run g++ on apollo sr10.  the problem is that apollo sr-non-10 does 
not have an appropriate 'a.out.h', the executable format file.  Also,
Apollo has not provide assistance of any kind to GNU and therefore 
GNU does not have a port on Apollo machines.  If you have an Apollo
with intel 386 and system V, you can port g++ on it.  Otherwise,
you have a long uphill battler ahead of you.

Your best bet might be to find a Sun if you can because two Mikes of 
GNU seems to be working on Sun gcc and g++ the first.
