[Bug libfortran/26893] kinds.h not generated, causing failure

------- Comment #23 from jbuck at gcc dot gnu dot org  2006-12-09 18:14 -------
I went and rebuilt everything, ran into the problem again, and determined that
it was because, although there was a correct --with-gmp, gfortran was failing
because  gmp wasn't on LD_LIBRARY_PATH.  But gmp is now in the middle-end,
right?  And libstdc++ successfully built with this flow, so the bug isn't
encountered for hours on a slow Sparc with -j1.

Anyway, the Fortran library built and the compiler is now running tests.

Whether this one is a true bug is debatable.  It seems to me that every other
GNU tool I try, as well as the rest of gcc, builds correctly when the location
of a library is given with a --with flag, even if it isn't on LD_LIBRARY_PATH. 
If this is the GNU standard way, then we have a real bug here.  If not, we need
loud warnings in the installation instructions that --with-gmp does not
suffice.
