gcc-2.95 problem with libstdc++


Hi.

Platform:  Digital AlphaServer 1000 running Digital Unix 4.0E.
C compiler: gcc 2.95.
 
When trying to build libstdc++-2.90.6, I am getting error messages of
the form

  Unable to access imaginary part of complex value in a 
  hard register on this target

early on in the build.

Gabriel Dos Reis <gdr@egcs.cygnus.com> told me:

> I don't think you get a useable linbstc++ (complex will be
> missing).  The main problem is that the compiler is broken.  Please
> send a bug report on egcs-bugs@egcs.cygnus.com.

so I am doing same.

BTW, I noticed that http://sourceware.cygnus.com/libstdc++ says:

  alpha-linux ... fail[s] while building parts of libstdc++-v3 dealing
  with complex.  Builds usually die with this error, which may be fixed
  in the next gcc release

So, I guess the main point of this letter is to tell you that the same
failure happens with alpha-dec-osf4.0e, as well as with alpha-linux.
