Hi, Desiring to build gcc-2.95 optimised for my woody/k7 system, I set CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to "-O2 -march=i686" (seems the closest we can get to "k7" at the moment) and did an apt-get --compile source gcc-2.95.
Reading the output from the build, in the section where the test suite is run, I get 1560 unexpected failures from gcc! and 654 for g++! Doesn't like my CFLAGS? Tried it again with no CFLAGS... this time gcc gives 1564 unexpected failures - slightly worse. Most of the failures appear to be due to a small number of tests which each give lots of errors. I realise this post is lacking in detail. This is because all I am asking is: is this level of unexpected failures normal? What do other people get from apt-get --compile source gcc-2.95? Or from getting the original (non-Debianised) source and building that the traditional way? I'd expect some failures because no software is perfect, but 1560 seems rather a lot.
