[gnu.gcc.bug] Problem with installing gcc version 1.27

hal@hades.seg.ausonics.nucleus.oz.au (Hanif A. Ladha) (05/19/89)

	Apologies if this isn't the right place to ask help for
installation problems. Please advise alternative. Would appreciate any
assistance, however. Here is my report....


-----

	I am having problems installing version 1.27 gcc on my 386 machine.
The machine is known as the Bell Technologies Multi Purpose Engine, a 20Mhz
386 box. It is running version 2.0 of INTERACTIVE 386/ix UNIX System V
Release 3.2.
	As per installation instructions, I linked config-i386v.h to
config.h, tm-i386v.h to tm.h, output-i386.c to aux-output.c, and i386.md to
md.
	No errors were encountered in compilation prior to stage1 (using
cc). Problems occured in building stage1, using the following command
(again from instructions)

		make CC=stage1/gcc CFLAGS="-g -O -Bstage1/"

	No problems till rtl.c file reached, then the above make exited
with error code 1. Tail end of make output below.

	Tried to make rtl.o manually...

	stage1/gcc -g -O -Bstage1/ -v -c rtl.c

	Again no luck, verbose output below.

===========
make output
===========

	stage1/gcc -g -O -Bstage1/ -c c-typeck.c
	stage1/gcc -g -O -Bstage1/ -c c-convert.c
	stage1/gcc -g -O -Bstage1/ -c stor-layout.c
	stage1/gcc -g -O -Bstage1/ -c fold-const.c
	stage1/gcc -g -O -Bstage1/ -c rtl.c
stage1/gcc: ^A^K^A
*** Error code 1

Stop.

===========
verbose output
===========

gcc version 1.27
 stage1/cpp -v -undef -D__GNU__ -D__GNUC__ -Dunix -Di386 -D__OPTIMIZE__ rtl.c /tmp/cca01977.cpp
GNU CPP version 1.27
 stage1/cc1 /tmp/cca01977.cpp -quiet -dumpbase rtl.c -g -O -version -o /tmp/cca01977.s
stage1/gcc: ^A^K^A

---------------------------------------------------

	I do not know what these ^A^K^A are, I guess that's my problem.
Note that I had change the control characters to two physical characters, to
avoid any possible net prolem.

	Would appreciate any assistance. Once I am able to get gcc going, I
would like to install g++. Please advise of any known problems in
installing in the above environment. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
