RE: compiling gcc-3.4.3 on a AMD quad OPTERON

[lrtaylor at micron dot com]

Your original problem was probably because GCC was trying to build both
a 32-bit and a 64-bit version, and it couldn't find all of the files it
needed for the 32-bit version.  You're probably better off not
installing the compatibility files and configuring your GCC only to
build a 64-bit version.  We had a similar problem, and that fixed it for
us.  Off the top of my head, I can't remember the configuration options
we used, but that should at least give you a direction to look in...

Thanks,
Lyle

Subject: compiling gcc-3.4.3 on a AMD quad OPTERON

I couldn't compile gcc-3.4.3 from scratch! I followed
the same procedure I am following up for years. It
stopped because it coulnd't find in my SuSE 9.2 tree
the file crti.o which does exist in /usr/lib64. It
couldn't find it though and the compilation stopped. 
That problem was solved when I installed gcc32
compatibility libraries from an FTP mirror of SuSE 9.2
x86_64. The compilation went on and I was very happy
to see that I can compile c++ programs. 

I was not so happy though when I realized that those 
programs I compiled successfully didn't run because
they couldn't load libstdc++.so.6. I could only run
statically linked programs! So what can I do for
that???

Thanks in advance!
Simeon N.
