GCC 2.95.2 and 2.95.3 do indeed go forever to compile java/parse.c on
alpha. I've done it myself, and it kept running for days until I
noticed the problem and terminated the compilation.
As Jeff Sturm pointed out, you should be using `make bootstrap' to
build a native compiler, and this wouldn't fall prey of this problem.
