Re: egcs-980221: build fails for shared libstdc++ on HP-UX 10.20

Ahem! That's a bit like saying, "I wasn't aware that people
weren't using GNU ld" :-)

What I DO do may be considered strange anyway ...

    I gunzip and un-tar the egcs.tar.gz file into one directory
    (e.g. egcs-980221).

    I then log-on to a machine of the correct architecture
    (e.g HP-UX 10.20) and create another directory for that
    build (e.g. egcs-980221-hpux10) and then use 'lndir' from
    the X11 distribution to create a 'symbolic-link tree'
    (where every directory is real, but every file under
    egcs-980221-hpux10 is a symbolic-link to the original under
    egcs-980221).
    
    I then configure and build under egcs-980221-hpux10, and
    then egcs-980221-sunos4 and then egcs-980221-sunos5.

If this too bizarre? Does it contain a fatal flaw?

I shall try and do a build in "Hollstein Orthodox-Form" too :-)

    Regards,

        Graham.
