Dear Sir or Madam:

  I have obtained gcc-2.3.1.tar.Z from the usual places, and have gotten
it to build on a Prime EXL7340.  I am writing to report a minor 
inconvenience in this process.  The Prime (as you probably know) runs
a flavor of the MIPS OS.  I built the GCC compiler using the
configuration option "mips-mips-sysv."  The only problem I had was with 
one file "mips-tdump.c," which caused compiler error messages of the
sort "index not defined."  The listing of config.h below contains a comment
that I used to remove the #define for index for this one source file.

  I have gotten gcc through stage 3, and am now testing it with various
C and C++ programs.  The only side effect of the above-mentioned problem
was that "cpp" got built, but not installed because "dumb make" didn't
remove it.  I moved it by hand and everything seems hunky dory.

  For reference, here is output from gcc -v 1-1.c (hello, world):

hello, world

  I appreciate all the fine work that has come out of FSF and the Gnu
project!  Thanks!!
