Problems building egcs-1.1.2 on SNI Reliant UNIX 5.43

[Charlton Barreto]

Hello all,

I am still attempting to build egcs-1.1.2 on SNI Reliant UNIX 5.43. So
far, I have been the most successful using the CDS++ c89 compiler
(v1.0C32). However, I run into the same problem as others have in the
gcc 2.95 bootstrap failure (on OpenServer). The compiler build makes it
to stage1, gencodes is built using the stage1 compiler, but when
gencodes is run for stage1, I get a core dump (signal 11):

stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/  -DIN_GCC  -DNO_SYS_SIGLIST  -O2 -g 
-DHAVE_CONFIG_H   -o gencodes \
 gencodes.o rtl.o bitmap.o print-rtl.o ` case "obstack.o" in ?*) echo
obstack.o ;; esac ` ` case "alloca.o" in ?*) echo alloca.o ;; esac ` `
case "" in ?*) echo  ;; esac ` ` case "" in ?*) echo  ;; esac ` ` case
"" in ?*) echo  ;; esac ` 
./gencodes ../../../egcs-1.1.2/gcc/config/mips/mips.md > tmp-codes.h
Bus Error - core dumped
gmake[2]: *** [s-codes] Error 138

I am hoping that a solution/workaround has been found for this - i.e. I
am hoping that I have something tweaked incorrectly in my environment. I
am also hoping that someone out there has successfully built egcs-1.1.2
(it has been done) and can pass on some pointers, advise, etc. as to how
they did it (which compilers, tools, etc. - something like the helpful
comments in the platform-specific build & install notes on the egcs
site). 

My success with building snapshots through egcs-19990718 has been even
more limited, each of these blowing up before stage1 is close to being
built. Even with CDS++ c89 1.0C32.

Again, I am using the CDS++ c89 compiler (v1.0C32). The CDS++ cc
compiler and CC compilers blew up early in the bootstrap process. I've
progressed the most with building egcs on SNI using c89.

And the environment I am attempting this build on is:

Any help, comments, direction, responses regarding this will be very
greatly appreciated.
