Problem compiling Gcc 3.1 on IRIX 6.5

[Fred Perry <fred at mun dot ca>]

Hi,

Not sure if this is the proper place to send this.  If not, please 
let me know where I might send it.

I am in the process of trying to compile Gcc 3.1 under IRIX 6.5 and
am having a few problem.  Some of which I have solved myself by 
copying files around the directory structure.

The latest one I have run into is the following:

gmake[2]: Entering directory `/disk2/install/gcc/gcc-3.1/mips-sgi-irix6.5/libiberty'
if [ x"" != x ] && [ ! -d pic ]; then \
mkdir pic; \
else true; fi
touch stamp-picdir
gmake[2]: *** No rule to make target `../include/xregex.h', needed by `regex.o'.  Stop.
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/disk2/install/gcc/gcc-3.1/mips-sgi-irix6.5/libiberty'
gmake[1]: *** [all-target-libiberty] Error 2
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/disk2/install/gcc/gcc-3.1'
gmake: *** [bootstrap] Error 2

I have tried the following configuration options (some given under
the successful IRIX 6.5 compiles on your website).

./configure --prefix=/usr/local

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-multilib --enable-threads=posix

./configure --prefix=/usr/freeware/gcc3.1 --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs --enable-languages=c++,f77,java --disable-multilib --enable-threads=posix

./configure --host=mips-sgi-irix6.5 --prefix=/usr/local --disable-nls --enable-libgcj

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Fred
