Hi there,
I successfully built gcc-4.0.0:
config.guess i686-pc-linux-gnu
gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../gcc-4.0.0/configure --prefix=/usr/local/test/gcc-4.0.0 --with-local-prefix=/usr/local/test/gcc-4.0.0 --enable-threads --enable-languages=ada,c,c++,objc,java
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.0.0
GNU/Linux Mandrakelinux release 10.1 (Official) for i586 Kernel 2.6.8.1-12mdk on an i686 glibc-2.3.3-23.1.101mdk
Some remarks: -----------------
- I had to use the --enable-languages option to get the Ada compiler; without it, and contrarily to what is suggested in the installation doc, Ada was not built.
- the HTML documentation is generated in /objdir//gcc/HTML, not in /objdir//HTML as indicated in the documentation.
