>Organization:
Department of Mathematics, University of Utah
>Environment:
	DEC Alpha 4100-5/466 (4 CPUs, 466 MHz, 2GB RAM);          OSF/1 4.0F
	% uname -a
	OSF1 XXXXXX.math.utah.edu V4.0 1229 alpha alpha

host: alphaev56-dec-osf4.0f
build: alphaev56-dec-osf4.0f
target: alphaev56-dec-osf4.0f
configured with: ../gcc-20020304/configure --prefix=/usr/local/test --enable-cpplib --enable-libgcj --enable-shared --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs --with-local-prefix=/usr/local --enable-threads
>Description:
cc -DIN_GCC -g -O2 -L/usr/local/lib -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings \
	-Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -DHAVE_CONFIG_H \
	-DGENERATOR_FILE -I. -If -I../../gcc-20020304/gcc \
	-I../../gcc-20020304/gcc/f -I../../gcc-20020304/gcc/config \
	-I../../gcc-20020304/gcc/../include -c  \
	../../gcc-20020304/gcc/f/fini.c -o f/fini.o
cc: Error: Syntax error on -W switch:  form is -Wpassname,switch

The options -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings are gcc specific, and they CANNOT
be used with other compilers!  When a native compiler is available, I
never bootstrap a gcc build with an older version of gcc: doing so is
less of a validation test than with using an alternate compiler.

>How-To-Repeat:
env CC=cc ../gcc-20020304/configure \
	--prefix=/usr/local/test \
	--enable-cpplib \
	--enable-libgcj \
	--enable-shared \
	--enable-version-specific-runtime-libs \
	--with-local-prefix=/usr/local &&
		make bootstrap
