------- Comment #8 from diskman at kc dot rr dot com 2006-03-06 03:56 ------- Well I went ahead and reinstalled GMP-4.1.4:
CC=gcc-3.2.3 CXX=g++-3.2.3 CPP=cpp-3.2.3 \ CFLAGS="-O2 -mieee -mtune=ev56 -w -pipe" \ CXXFLAGS="-O2 -mieee -mtune=ev56 -w -pipe" \ ./configure \ --build=alpha-alpha-linux \ --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --infodir=/usr/info \ --mandir=/usr/man \ --enable-cxx \ --enable-nails \ --disable-mpfr And installed MPFR-2.2.0: CC="ccache gcc-3.2.3" CXX="ccache g++-3.2.3" CPP="ccache cpp-3.2.3" \ CFLAGS="-O2 -mieee -mtune=ev56 -w -pipe" \ CXXFLAGS="-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -mieee -mtune=ev56 -w -pipe" \ ./configure \ --build=alpha-alpha-linux \ --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --infodir=/usr/info \ --mandir=/usr/man \ --enable-shared and then attempted to rebuild GCC. All the GFORTAN compiler does now, is simply hang at the following: checking whether the linker (/usr2/www/linux-related/programming/compilers/gcc-4.1.0/gcc-4.1.0/host-alphapca56-alpha-linux-gnu/gcc/collect-ld) supports shared libraries... yes checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate checking whether stripping libraries is possible... yes checking dynamic linker characteristics... GNU/Linux ld.so checking command to parse /usr2/www/linux-related/programming/compilers/gcc-4.1.0/gcc-4.1.0/host-alphapca56-alpha-linux-gnu/gcc/nm output... ok checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes checking whether to build shared libraries... yes checking whether to build static libraries... yes creating libtool updating cache ./config.cache configure: loading cache ./config.cache checking for alphapca56-alpha-linux-gnu-gfortran... /usr2/www/linux-related/programming/compilers/gcc-4.1.0/gcc-4.1.0/host-alphapca56-alpha-linux-gnu/gcc/gfortran -B/usr2/www/linux-related/programming/compilers/gcc-4.1.0/gcc-4.1.0/host-alphapca56-alpha-linux-gnu/gcc/ -B/usr/alphapca56-alpha-linux-gnu/bin/ -B/usr/alphapca56-alpha-linux-gnu/lib/ -isystem /usr/alphapca56-alpha-linux-gnu/include -isystem /usr/alphapca56-alpha-linux-gnu/sys-include checking whether we are using the GNU Fortran compiler... I let it sit for several hours and it never budged... I think it is now safe to say that GFORTRAN isn't working properly and that GMP/MPFR [will not build with anything greater than GCC-3.2.3] are somewhat dodgey at best. I've tried several different configurations and variation on the deps builds and GCC itself, nothing is working as it should. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26564
