gcc3.2.1 installation failure on Alpha/Tru64

[Karel Gardas]

Hello,

I'm trying to compile/install gcc3.2.1 branch on Alpha Tru64 machine.
JFYI: I tried to use system supplied make, but the compilation fails very
quickly, so for this platform gnu make seems to be necessary. After
installing it, everything goes well (bootstrap finished sucessfully) till
the moment I want to do make install. It fails with:

rm -rf
/house/kgardas/usr/local/alpha-osf1//lib/gcc-lib/alphaev68-dec-osf5.1/3.2.1/include
mkdir
/house/kgardas/usr/local/alpha-osf1//lib/gcc-lib/alphaev68-dec-osf5.1/3.2.1/include
chmod a+rx
/house/kgardas/usr/local/alpha-osf1//lib/gcc-lib/alphaev68-dec-osf5.1/3.2.1/include
(cd `pwd`/include ; \
 tar -cf - .; exit 0) | (cd
/house/kgardas/usr/local/alpha-osf1//lib/gcc-lib/alphaev68-dec-osf5.1/3.2.1/include;

I'll try to install GNU tar to see if it causes problems...
