I just recently retrieved the gcc-2.3.2-2.3.3 patch.  In case you have
forgotten I am the guy who had some problems building gcc-2.3.2 on SCO
UNIX 3.2v4.  The new patch is great.  I have only one minor problem to
report.  The default CFLAGS for the bootstrap compile contains a '-g'
to enable debugging.  This caused the Microsoft C compiler to become
confused.  It somehow thought it was compiling Xenix code and
apparently tried to convert OMF files.  Here is an example of the
output.

cc -nointl  -DIN_GCC -D__STDC__=0  -g     -I. -I. -I./config -c ./cexp.c
./cexp.c
/usr/bin/.cvtomf: fatal error -- No input file specified

I solved the problem by redefining CFLAGS so that the '-g' flag was
turned off during the bootstrap.

Thanks.
