Hi, finally, gcc 4.0.0 is released and it builds on IRIX 6.3 (as opposed to my numerous failing tries of gcc 3.x.y).
lucy 70% ./gcc-4.0.0/config.guess mips-sgi-irix6.3 lucy 71% /usr/gcc-4.0/bin/gcc -v Using built-in specs. Target: mips-sgi-irix6.3 Configured with: /usr/people/eblachut/dev/gcc-4.0.0/configure --prefix=/usr/gcc-4.0 --disable-nls --disable-multilib --disable-intl --with-gnu-as --with-as=/usr/loc/bin/as.gnu --with-gnu-ld --with-ld=/usr/loc/bin/ld.gnu --enable-languages=c,c++ Thread model: single gcc version 4.0.0 C and C++ enabled only Build used gcc 2.95 as the bootstrap compiler as well as GNU binutils 2.15: lucy 77% gcc -v Reading specs from /usr/gcc-2.95.3/lib/gcc-lib/mips-sgi-irix6.3/2.95.3/specs gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release) lucy 75% /usr/loc/bin/as.gnu -v /dev/null GNU assembler version 2.15 (mips-sgi-irix6.3) using BFD version 2.15 lucy 76% /usr/loc/bin/ld.gnu -v GNU ld version 2.15 Remarks: 1. GNU as usage was explicitly requested (during configuration, AFAIR) 2. SGI ld failed (complaining about bad sections in OBJ files) 3. GNU as+ld combinations worked fine (testsuite not run...)
