I have had mine showing it needed to recompile gcc for a very long time now. There is also a bug for it too. It has been there for a really long time. There are hacks to work around the bug but some don't like the hack and neither did I. I just omit gcc and do whatever else it says. It's not a perfect tool but it works, mostly anyway. ;-) Dale :-) :-)
