I tried to bootstrap gcc-2.95.2 on hppa2.0-hp-hpux10.20 in the same
way, with objdir != srcdir, and srcdir pristine.

It fails in compare:

Bootstrap comparison failure!
alias.o differs
alloca.o differs
bitmap.o differs
c-aux-info.o differs
...

Which is probably (relatively) harmless due to the usual reasons like
timestamps in object files or something.  But of course a bug in 2.95.2.

I see an apparently functional g++ binary.

(martin@hpux) ~cdxw/gcc-2.95.2 $ gcc/g++ --version
2.95.2

I imagine that make install will work, but I don't want to try it.
