I am trying to build libg++ on a sun3 running SunOS, and getting the following:
rootme=`pwd`/ ; export rootme; CC="cc "; export CC; CXX="gcc  "; export CXX; CON
FIG_NM="nm"; export CONFIG_NM; ./utils/gen-params LIB_VERSION=2.3  >tmp-params.h
nm: dummy.o: cannot open
nm: dummy.o: cannot open
nm failed to find FUNC in dummy.o!
./utils/gen-params: -1: bad number
make[1]: *** [_G_config.h] Error 1
make: *** [all-libg++] Error 1

I am trying to build these libs in a non-standard path. Although I set 'prefix'
to the path for gcc (also non-standard), make isn't finding it, as you can see
from the above (CC="cc "; export CC; CXX="gcc  ").

Has anyone else had and solved this problem? Is bison and gas really the key?

Everything has to be built in a non-standard path. I can't get the sys-admin
to help with installation until everything is working.

thanks
