problems installing on NeXT

Hello.

I have gcc 2.95 and I am trying to install it on a NeXT with
OpenStep, but the configure script isn't completing because
the dirname utility isn't present on the system. I gather it's
important since it parses the path out of a fully qualified
expression.

I am wondering if I should try to make a script from:

## this sed command emulates the dirname command
dstdir=`echo $dst | sed -e 's,[^/]*$,,;s,/$,,;s,^$,.,'`

and put in in a system directory...

Or if there is some other way to get GCC going on a NeXT.

Please advise. Thanks.

S.
