Hello,
  Despite following the directions in the INSTALL file carefully, and
trying several times, I am unable to get a working gcc on my Sun-3
which runs SunOS 4.0, using either 1.27 or 1.28.
  The first make (using cc) generates several "statement not reached warnings"
(see dribble files below).  Since there was no mention of this in the INSTALL
file, I suspect that there is already a problem at this point.
The second make generates a "warning: floating point number exceeds range
of double" for the float constant 0.0 (again see dribble file below).
The third pass is identical and does pass the comparison test.  The
installed gcc generates the same floating point error for any float
constant of 0.0, among other errors (which I need to document better before
reporting).
  Does everyone have a problem doing this installation, or am I unlucky?
(or careless?)  I was careful not to set the FLOAT_OPTION environment
variable.  I tried both 1.27 and 1.28 and they have the same behaviour.
There were no checksum errors in the tar files which I obtained by ftp.
The only change I made was to change the execuatbles directory from
/usr/local to /usr/local/bin at the beginning of the makefile.
I used the sun4 config file, the sun3 machine description, and the 68k
md and aux-output files.  The only thing which might be unusual about
our Sun setup is that we have a hacked libc.so which uses the resolver
directly rather than YP.  Could this account for the errors I saw?

  On a more positive note, I wish to commend everyone there on an
incredible compiler!  (Judging by experience running it on another system....)
I couldn't live without variable length arrays!  Such a nice simple
extension.  (Is there *any* chance of ANSI or someone adopting something
like it?)

  Hope I got my question to the right place (sorry if I missed)...
