HP's GNUpro version 2.9-hppa-000310 *and* gcc-3.0.1 for 64bit
(gcc-3.0 / 64 also did it)

FYI. I've build gcc-3.0.1-32 from scratch myself and got gcc-3.0.1-64 from

approximately:

My starting point was a precompiled 3.0 from devresource.hp.com.
(which takes hp ld)

But since it is a lot of pain (gcc-3.0 is buggy) and I just went through it:
Give me a ftp or scp account on Your machine:
I can load up a gcc-3.0.1 tar.gz-ball which uses binutils'
5 minutes ago hand-patched  gnu-ld: a true 64 bit compiler!

Hi!

upload done. gcc.tgz contains the c, f77 and c++ part of gcc.
It includes binutils and unpacks into /opt/FREE-SOFTWARE/gcc-3.0.1-64
and has no other files installed elsewhere. Take it as a starting point for
own builds and please tell me if You have problems with this one.

Note that I use cvs-binutils from friday. It may be better for You to use
binutils-2.11.2 or later stable versions when available.
I took cvs binutils because I have spurious linker errors with my
80MB-executables :-(

As a hint for further builds (gcc-64 builds fine if You have a 64-bit gcc):

I made very good experience with
  --with-gnu-as
  --with-gnu-ld
  --with-as=/explicit/path
and
  --with-ld=/some/other/path

make sure You have gnu-flex in PATH

My own build today went off with
