When building egcs 1.0.3a on HP-UX 10 and using --with-gnu-as in the ./configure line, the executable produced still looks for the assembler in /usr/ccs/bin. I hacked the config/pa/hp*10.h where MD_EXEC_PREFIX was defined to remove this little annoying "mis-feature". Seems like this may be a "bug" in the configure script... -- Eric
