Hi All,
   After reading through ./config/i860/i860.h I see that gcc will 'probably'
never support a Big Endian I860.  Our Stratus FTX box happens to be just on
of those processors.  I know GCC will compile on it (Stratus has offered to
sell it to us) but I want to compile it on my own.  I've tried several things
but no matter what I do when enquire runs it just hangs.

enquire -f > tmp-float.h

It never returns.  I let it use up about 30sec of cpu time and it just sat
there.  Compile enquire with /usr/ccs/bin/cc works just fine so I know it's
something I'm doing wrong.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks
Tony Nelson
