Aloha,
There do not seem to be any prerequisites given for gcc versions in the
documentation. The code still has #ifdef's for gcc < 2.6 ... :)
In trying to compile binutils-2.23.2 with gcc-2.95.3 and make-3.82 on
linux-2.4.32, the following issues were uncovered.
a gratuitous ";;"

if (abfd == NULL || stash == NULL)
an unnecessary violation of reasonable C standards, i.e., putting
declarations after code

an understandable use of the "t" format, but 2.95.3 does not seem to
understand it, or "z" -- agreed that "u" is no good either, but this is only
on a 32-bit system :)

a valid complaint about signed versus unsigned

PRINTF_LIKE is used only here from its definition in as.h . There are
version #ifdefs around the definition, but 2.95.3 does not work with the
result

then came ld and "link_info shadows global definition" error messages and I
gave up and switched to trying to get gcc-3.4.6 to compile :)
Mahalo for listening,
