gcc-bug ??

[Bernd Kuehbach]

Hello over there !
 
First of all: If this is the wrong way to report a 
bug, please send me a short message
on how to do it correctly. It's the first time I'm 
using GNU software and I'm not yet 
too familiar with your rules.
 
 
 
Now the problems:
 
On my ATHLON I tried to build gcc (2.95.2) 
under (SUSE-)linux. The "configure"
went OK, but the "make bootstrap" issued the 
following error message   (after
about 5 minutes of compiling happily and 
productively  :-) 
 
....
....

When I remove the "indstream" from the 
corresponding Makefiles, 
make bootstrap completes successfully and gcc works 
OK.
 
But it still does not solve the following 
problem:
 
 
 
 
The reason why I 
downloaded gcc-everything-2.95.2.tar and tried to
install gcc and g77 is the following:
 
I have the SU (seismic un*x, Colorado School of 
Mines) package installed
on my machine (under SUSE-linux). No problems 
occured during the
installation until I added my own stuff, which used 
to be running under SU
on an IBM 320H workstation (under AIX 
3.something).
 
I am calling FORTRAN from C several times, and 
everything works all
right, but when there is eg exponentiation 
(a**B) within the FORTRAN
routine, an error message like the one below 
occurs:

So I thought there could be something wrong with 
gcc and/or g77
under linux, and this is why tried to install gcc 
from scratch.
 
 
Many thanks in anticipation of your help (and for 
all the great stuff
your creating)
 
 
best regards
