Thanks for the quick reply.

I downloaded binutils but I wonder if I was still picking up the HP "as"
instead of the binutils one.  I'll modify my PATH and re-try.  One of my
co-workers had downloaded gcc from the HP site, but when I tried to compile
a simple C file with it, I got "as" errors, so I decided to try to build
gcc from source.  This all started because I wanted to build "ddd" and it
requires a C++ compiler (we have HP's ANSI C compiler).

By the way, I was getting a lot of the following warnings during the build:

cc1: warning: -g is only supported when using GAS on this processor.
cc1: warning: -g option disabled.

Would this indicate that I was using the wrong "as" or is this some other
problem?

Thanks again,

Jim Marselle

Synopsis: I can't get bootstrap to work.

State-Changed-From-To: open->feedback

State-Changed-When: Wed Jan  2 19:53:34 2002
State-Changed-Why:
    Did you follow the platform specific instructions for HPUX
    at:
    http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#hppa*-hp-hpux11

    You need to use binutils instead of the native assembler.

    If you go to: http://www.hp.com and search for gcc, you
    can find a distribution of gcc 3.0.2 compiled for HP-UX
    which you can try to bootstrap gcc 3.0.3 with.
