Hello All,

As you probably know, gengtype is useful for plugins, and they also need the 
gtype.state
file.

However, the current GCC trunk still don't seem to install it.

[several distributions, including Mandriva & Debian, are patching GCC for that 
purpose]

And GCC installation procedure and gcc/Makefile.in really give me a headache, 
and I don't
understand enough of it to be able to propose an acceptable patch.

Could any knowledgable person help in that. I'm sure that for people really 
understanding
GCC building procedure (which I am not), proposing a patch to install gengtype 
is even
simpler than explaining how it should be done.


I was told that for reasons I don't understand, gengtype would have to be 
compiled twice
(once in build and once in "host" mode, whatever that means exactly).

trunk is coming out of stage 1, and I am afraid that even gcc-4.7 won't have 
gengtype
installed.

Regards.

PS. I really cannot write a patch for that, I don't understand the makefile & 
configure
tricks enough.
