hi,
silly question: why doesn't --program-prefix work?
using gcc-3.2.2 or -3.2.1 (or any version for all i know), this flag seems
to be ignored. eg, if i run this:
TARGET="armv5b-linux"
HOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
PROGPREFIX="xscalebe-"
CPU="xscale"
PREFIX="/usr/local/xscalebe/"
../gcc-$GCCVER-src/configure --target=$TARGET --prefix=$PREFIX $HOST --with-headers=$KERNEL/include --disable-shared --disable-threads --enable-languages="c" --nfp --with-cpu=$CPU --without-fp --with-softfloat-support=internal --program-prefix=$PROGPREFIX
then the 'gcc' generated and installed in /usr/local/xscalebe/bin
is _not_ the 'xscalebe-[gcc,cpp]' that one expects, but rather they
are 'armv5b-linux-[gcc,cpp]'. since i'm using similar control over
binutils/etc, i would prefer all the names to match, and hence
expected --program-prefix to make it so.
what's wrong with this? am i doing something incorrect?
thanks,
josh
