I merged the source, gcc-4.1.0 on top of binutils-2.16.92 on top of
newlib-1.14.0, using cpio. (binutils-2.16.92 is the Release Candidate for
2.17.) I tried to bootstrap, using a GCC 3.4.3 as the starting point.
The bootstrap failed with:
[Condensing <build area> to $b, <install area> to $i, <source area> to $src,
and neatening a bit:]
/bin/ksh $src/gcc/mkconfig.sh tconfig.h
./xgcc -B./ -B$i/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/bin/
-isystem $i/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/include
-isystem $i/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/sys-include
-L$b/gcc/../ld -c -o crt1.o -x assembler-with-cpp
$src/gcc/config/sparc/sol2-c1.asm
./as: error: $b/gcc/.libs/as-new does not exist
This script is just a wrapper for as-new.
See the libtool documentation for more information.
make[2]: *** [crt1.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory $b/gcc
make[1]: *** [stage1_build] Error 2
When I reported this to the binutils mailing list, Daniel Jacobowitz
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> commented: "this must be a combined tree consequence of the
new gcc/as handling. Might want to report it to gcc's bugzilla."
