Re: Trying to build egcs-1.1.2 on dynix/sequent platform...

[Mark Crosland <mjc@c1000907-b.sttls1.wa.home.com>]

I added "#define NO_SYS_SIGLIST 1" to auto-host.h and things went much
further. stage1 completed, and then late(?) in the stage2 build, after it
re-configures a bunch of stuff, it tries to build libio again and things
get a little squirly. The compiler can't seem to resolve functions that
are being used in the class that they are defined in. e.g.,

class A {
    int B();
    int C() { B(); }
};

will result in the compiler stopping with an error in function C(),
claiming that class A does not contain a function called B(). I tried some
serious flailing at the code, just to see if this was a small hicup
(replacing the offending calls with the (small) functions they call),
but the next file died the same death.

The following is the last bit of the make output, maybe someone will say,
"oh yeah, i remember this..." (or maybe not :)
