You can pick up my patches for gcc on the Apollo, but you'll need to get version 1.37.1 of gcc and version 1.35 of gas. Here are the details: Changes required to build gcc 1.37.1, g++ 1.37.1, and libg++ 1.37.0 for Apollo 68K platforms are now available. The changes are in the form of compressed tar files containing new versions of files to replace those from the virgin FSF distributions. The following files are available via anonymous ftp from labrea.stanford.edu (36.8.0.47) in the pub/gnu directory: APOLLO-GCC-README 4197 bytes APOLLO-G++-README 6379 bytes APOLLO-LIBG++-README 5906 bytes apollo-gcc-1.37.1.tar.Z 253407 bytes apollo-g++-1.37.1.tar.Z 418879 bytes apollo-libg++-1.37.0.tar.Z 43532 bytes The README files explain what is involved in building each component. Gcc must be built and installed in order to build g++, which must be built and installed in order to build libg++. The README files are also included in the tar packages, but are available separately in case you want to see what's involved first. The gcc-1.37.1 changes fix several problems which were reported to me by folks who tried my earlier gcc-1.37 changes. Also, you'll need the gcc-1.37.1 changes in order to get g++ built, even if you already have gcc 1.37 running. I have only tried out these changes on SR10.2, using the 6.7 version of the Apollo C compiler. There may be problems with earlier releases of Domain/OS and the C compiler. If you do not have ftp access, I can mail you the changes in the form of diffs. If you request them, be sure to give me a voice phone number so I can contact you in case I can't send you mail; I've had several requests in the past from people I can't contact.
