>Environment:
System: Linux celes.dgate.ORG 2.2.14-5.0.14smp #1 SMP Sun Mar 26 13:03:52 PST 2000 i686 unknown
Architecture: i686
host: i686-pc-linux-gnu
build: i686-pc-linux-gnu
target: mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu
configured with: ../gcc-20010107/configure --prefix=/usr/local/mipsel-linux --enable-shared --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs --enable-languages=c --target=mipsel-linux
>Description:
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html
says:
--enable-cpplib -- Specify that the functionality of CPP should be integrated
into the compiler itself. This is still under development, but may be useful
in limited situations. This option is never enabled by default.
But I think it is enabled by default, and useful in most situations, etc.
>How-To-Repeat:
read http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html, compare to the fact that my
newly built compiler without --enable-cpplib identifies itself as
GNU CPP version 2.97 20010106 (experimental) (cpplib) (MIPSel GNU/Linux with ELF)
and that the option does not appear in any gcc/*/configure script
>Fix:
Delete the description of the option from configure.html.
Note somewhere (NEWS, perhaps?) that cpplib is the default.
