I've built GCC 3.3 on AIX 5.2, powerpc 64 bit.
As I indicated earlier, the following aspects
were troublesome:
-- IBM-packaged gcc 2.9-aix51 fails to bootstrap
-- Native cc bootstraps only after 2.5 tweaks,
the .5 being that the first tweak is two-step:
(1.) in ../gcc-3.3/gcc/intl/plural.c, remove const
qualifier of the 2nd parameter in the prototype, pexp.
(Totally and absurdly, patently wrong, but works(?!))
bootstrap.
(1.5) put the const back! proceed.
(2.5) in include/math.h, delete #ifndef __cplusplus..#endif
brackets offending by being after ...\ on the previous line,
thus assumed not at the beginning of the line and mistaken
for a macro #parameter.
After more than 10 hours of deliberate checking for things,
declaration and linkage, it builds.
Cheers,
Alexy
