Hi,

I'm trying to build libg++-2.2 using gcc-2.2.2.

My machine is a Unisys/6035 running Unix SVR4.  I used configure i386-sysv4.

Everything proceeds fine until the make gets to libg++/src, and tries
to build AllocRing.cc.  At this stage, I get a this fatal error:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
gcc -g -nostdinc++ -I.. -I. -I./../iostream -I./../g++-include  -c AllocRing.cc
(EOF):undefined name: .L_B5_e
(EOF):undefined name: .L_B5
*** Error code 1 (bu21)

make: fatal error.
*** Error code 1 (bu21)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, I'm not familiar with C++, but this rather looks like gcc is
having some problems compiling a C++ construct, which it handles using
some auto-generated name like L_B5_e or some such.

But the net result is that I can't build libg++-2.2.   I have no other
version of the library;  I need it so I can build groff-1.05.
Otherwise, I'm stuck.

So, is this a bug in libg++ or gcc, or what can I do about it?

If there's anything else you need to know about my environment, I'll
supply it on request.


Cheers,
Simon Guest.

PS: If I should have RTFM'd (which I tried), please tell me which M to R.
