Could someone please send me the (apparently recently posted) fixes to the __DYNAMIC problem on sun3 under OS 4.0.3. Thanks in advance, Chris (frerking@lll-lcc.llnl.gov)

The 'problem' is fixed best by fixing the configure/install method, not the posted patch. We bumped into the same problem, and fixed it by fixing our configuration method. When you build g++ 1.35.0 they recommend you have a dir gcc-1.35, a symlink gcc pointing to gcc-1.35, a dir g++-1.35, and a dir g++. In g++ you are supposed to have a whole bunch of symbolic links to the contents of the other two dirs. First you configure/build gcc. Then you configure/build g++. This seems to give an incorrect configure on Sun3/OS4.0 -- config.h is a symlink to a symlink to .../gcc/config/xm-sunos4.h. After you have built gcc but *before* you configure g++, go to your g++ directory. Delete the symbolic link 'config'. Create a directory named 'config', cd into it. Now create symbolic links to the contents of the gcc/config, ie ln -s ../../gcc/config/* . Now give the configure command for g++. This will give you a symlink to a symlink from config.h to .../gcc/config/xm-sunos4+.h. I won't swear this is a general problem with the g++ install. But at least 4 sites have bumped into it including Frerking and us. The 'posted fix' he mentioned patched xm-sunos4.h to be identical to xm-sunos4+.h. -- Steve Simmons scs@vax3.iti.org Industrial Technology Institute Ann Arbor, MI.
