cc: Error: Syntax error on -W switch: form is -Wpassname,switch
The options -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings are gcc specific, and they CANNOT
be used with other compilers! When a native compiler is available, I
never bootstrap a gcc build with an older version of gcc: doing so is
less of a validation test than with using an alternate compiler.
>How-To-Repeat:
env CC=cc ../gcc-20020304/configure \
--prefix=/usr/local/test \
--enable-cpplib \
--enable-libgcj \
--enable-shared \
--enable-version-specific-runtime-libs \
--with-local-prefix=/usr/local &&
make bootstrap
