Hello, Bootstrap for mingw target configurations is failing today, with complaints about an inexistant /dev/null.
The failing commands are issued by the selftest recipes in gcc/Makefile, using: SELFTEST_FLAGS = -nostdinc /dev/null -S -o /dev/null \ -fself-test=$(srcdir)/testsuite/selftests The attached patch is a proposal to fix this by resorting to "nul" instead of "/dev/null" when the build machine name indicates a mingw setup. It fixes the gcc-7 bootstrap in our Windows setup (i686-pc-mingw32), and passes bootstrap and regression tests on x86_64-linux. OK to commit ? Thanks much in advance, With Kind Regards, Olivier 2017-11-24 Olivier Hainque <hain...@adacore.com> * Makefile.in (SELFTEST_FLAGS): Use nul instead of /dev/null on mingw build hosts.
