GCC: 1.36
FILES: INSTALL
Point 10 of `INSTALL' (line 383) describes how to test the compiler
by compiling it with itself. The trailing comment says
Aside from the `-B' option, the options should be the same as
when you made stage 2.
The flags also differ in the `CC' `make' macro. Stage 2 and 3 command
lines are, respectively:
make CC=stage1/gcc CFLAGS="-g -O -Bstage1/"
make CC=stage2/gcc CFLAGS="-g -O -Bstage2/"
^-- ^--
Point 10 in `INSTALL' used to say how to use the `foreach command'.
Now it simply says `that you can use it'. The old wording was similar
to:
foreach file (*.o)
echo $file
cmp $i stage2/$file
end
The old wording was useful both becaue it said what to do, and because
it could be copied directly, saving time and typographical errors.
