Re: gcc-ss-20000612: installation failure on hppa2.0n-hp-hpux11.00

Thanks Simon for your great work.

I don't understand the asm more than you --and probably less.
From looking at the gcc code, I get the impression that the .IMPORT
directives are generated by the macros ASM_OUTPUT_EXTERNAL(_LIBCALL)?
defined in config/pa/som.h and config/pa/som.elf.h, and called
respectively from assemble_external and assemble_external_libcall in
varasm.c.

Also, from my log, the egcs installation succeeded until (incl)
20000103, which made me look at gcc/ChangeLog and find a record on
2000-01-11 by Kaveh R. Ghazi  <ghazi@caip.rutgers.edu>.

Best Regards!
Marc

P.S. egcs-20000710 fails to install much earlier, and for reasons
independent from shared libraries:
