Re: bootstrap/9889: installation gcc 3.2.2 fails on Solaris 2.8

[Kinh Nguyen <xkinh at yahoo dot com>]

This is the way I successfully compliled GCC-3.2.2:

  First, I set CONFIG_SHELL, and turn off /bin/ucb
path as you told me to look at:
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#*-*-solaris2*
?
  It doesn't work.
  Next, I download and install gnu-make as Steve said
and recompile.  It doesn't work too.
  Next, I download and install GCC-3.0.1.
  I use set CONFIG_SHELL, turn off /usr/ucb path, use
gnu-make, and GCC-3.0.1 and It works.  

Absolutely, the problem is: I use the old compiler GCC
version 2.8.1.  The question is: do I need to use
gnu-make, and turn off ucb, use CONFIG_SHELL as ksh. 
I am not sure.  I will test it and let you know.

Regards,
Kinh
