Yes; that worked and it simplifies things a lot. So, wip-hurd is using guile-2 and gcc-5 now. Using gcc-5 allowed me to remove the puzzling gcc-boot0 patch. Just reset wip-hurd again; it was fully up to date with core-utils when I started building the bootstrap-tarballs... Rebasing right now to verify for a new round ;-) Greetings, janneke -- Jan Nieuwenhuizen <jann...@gnu.org> | GNU LilyPond http://lilypond.org Freelance IT http://JoyofSource.com | Avatar® http://AvatarAcademy.com
