Re: RETURN token error in gcc 2.96-20000731

Problem has to do with newer bison (1.87).
Besides the #defines for the tokens is also generates an ENUM with the tokens.
Defining #YYTOKENTYPE just before the include for c-parse.h solves the build

The FSF never made a gcc-2.96 release. This is probably from a linux vendor, Red Hat perhaps, and we don't support their release. The equivalent FSF releases gcc-2.95/gcc-3.0 are so old that we no longer support them. We can only support the last one or two FSF gcc releases, so we are only supporting gcc-3.3.x and the pending gcc-3.4 release at the moment.


We prefer bug reports to be filed into our bugzilla database. We do not track problems mailed to gcc-bugs. We only track problems filed into our bug database.

If you want to build an old gcc release, it is a good idea to use old utilities to build it. Trying to use up-to-date utilities is likely to result in versioning problems like the one you found already. You may find more of them.
