Hi Eric,
Normally binutils is built in a separate build directory, not built in
its source tree.
I don't know for sure if you really need to use the --program-prefix
configure switch in binutils and gcc. The build process normally does
that on other hosts, but I don't know how it behaves on Solaris.
You do need to make sure that after binutils is built, that you put
the installation directory (--prefix) in your PATH environment
variable. Building gcc and avr-libc will need to know where the
just-built AVR assembler and linker are located.
You have the gcc configure switch --enable-language=c and it should be
--enable-languages=c. Note that "languages" is plural.
It would be better to build gcc version 4.3.3, instead of 4.2.3. It's
a more recent version and it's being used on other hosts.
To get support for other devices, as well as a number of bug fixes,
you'll need to patch your binutils and gcc source code using the
patches found at the WinAVR project (SourceForge) or using the patches
found in the FreeBSD Ports project. These are roughly the same
patches. The WinAVR patches only patch binutils 2.19 though, not 2.20.
You will need to have the GMP and MPFR library packages on your host
in order to properly build GCC. If you don't have these libraries,
they are relatively easy to build.
I don't know for sure whether any of the above is a cause of your
problem, but it might help out.
Thanks for all your comments. I am currently downloading gcc 4.33 and
will retry with the modified options. I will let you know ...
Thanks a lot,
Andreas
