Greetings,

I recently purchased the text "PHP3: Programming Browser Based
Applications" and was trying to install the software that came on the
associated CDR. I am running Slackware Linux 4.0 on a Pentium 120.

Instructions are provided for using gcc 2.7.2.3 to compile gcc 2.8.1,
since the former (says the author) will not successfully compile PHP. The
compilation command he gives is as follows:

make bootstrap LANGUAGES="c c++" BOOT_CFLAGS=" -g -02"

When I ran this (after I had run a ./configure routine which ran fine) I
got what appeared to be a warning at every stage of compilation about the
second of the BOOT_CFLAGS values, to wit:

xgcc: unrecognized value '-02' 

(apologies: this is possibly a paraphrase of what it said - the
"sense" was equivalent to this)

The compilation was running on 20 minutes long when I aborted it. Am
wondering if anyone can shed any light on this. As a relative newbie to
Linux, I'm confident I'm doing something fairly doltish.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Glenn Becker
