Hi everyone,

Many many thanks to the people who responded to my long plea for help
in installing g++ and libg++.a on a Sun 3 running 4.0.3.

With the help I received, I was able to successfully install the
compiler and library.

The bulk of my problems were arising because I wasn't using the Gnu
assembler.  Also, the discrepancies between the Makefiles, README, and
the texinfo files were confusing.

But I learned the correct way to install software, and I also learned
how to modify g++'s gcc.c file so that g++ would use an alternate name
for the Gnu ld.  This way, g++ can use the Gnu ld it needs, but gcc
and cc can continue using Sun's ld, which has the advantage of
supporting dynamic linking.

Thanks to:

Doug Lea	<dl@g.oswego.edu>

As well as anyone else out there whose mail I might not have received.
