Re: problem compiling gcc 2.9.5

[Bryan Weston <bryanw at bluemoon dot sps dot mot dot com>]

I don't know what to tell you. I had deleted the old directory, so I
unziped the source again, ran configure again and this time it works. The
only idea I have is that the shell I ran in first had some old variables
or something.

I have not finished the compile, but it is much further. I ran out of disk
space so I started over without -g.

Thanks for your help.
