I downloaded the release version (1.1.2) "core" package and
had the following problem.
config.guess = powerpc-ibm-aix4.1.5.0
Using bash:
(from a separate build directory)
../egcs-1.1.2/configure --prefix=~user/local
CC=cc;export CC
(cc is in /usr/bin/cc)
After make bootstrap-lean and some time it gets as far as
stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/ -DIN_GCC -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DHAIFA -Wl,-bbigtoc - o
cccp cccp.o <etc>
I get an error from my binutils 2.9.1 copy of gnu ld saying "invalid BFD
target 'bigtoc'"
Which is odd because
a. I removed the location of gnu ld from my path (which ld gives
/usr/bin/ld)
(it is however in ~user/local/bin/ld)
b. I get the same error if I specify --with-gnu-ld
I have previously installed 1.1.1 without problems.
I suspect I can work around this by moving/removing gnu ld,
but should egcs be using gnu ld when it's supposed to
find the ibm one first?
