  I'm trying desperately to install gcc-2.2.2 on an hp9k750 running hpux 
version 8.07.
  We need it as a development tool, so we need debugging facilities. But
unfortunately the file INSTALL says that the -g option isn't supported.
The proposed solution consists of grabbing the GDB debugger from mancos.cs.utah
edu (already done). Then install GAS in the file /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/
hp9k750-hpux/2.2.2/as and delete the line :

#undef DBX_DEBUGGING_INFO 

from tm.h and then build gcc.
  The problem is we can't build gas (version 1.38), it seems that it doesn't
support the precision architecture of the hp9k750 (hope i'm committing a
mistake here).
  If we try to build gcc without gas (using the native hp assembler ) it runs
ok till the creation of gcc. Then gcc tries to compile libraries, and we get
the following error messages :

as: /usr/tmp/cca11705.s @line#20 [err#1050]
  Illegal symbol in label position - .stabs "long long int:t7=r1;0;-1;",128,0,0,
as: /usr/tmp/cca11705.s @line#21 [err#1050]
  Illegal symbol in label position - .stabs "short unsigned int:t8=r1;0;65535;",
