Re: GCC 4.8 build


thanks for the details. Can I specify the particular nm that I need to
use when compiling gcc. If this is possible, I can point to the
binutils nm atleast to continue with the build.

Regarding the bug, I'm new to filing bugs and will require inputs on
which tool to file it against.

Thanks,
Kalai
