I'm getting crazy trying to get gcc 1.38 running on my Honeywell Bull 
X20-Superteam, a 68020 machine with sysv 2.2.
I started this task about two months ago, with gcc 1.37.1, but nothing came out.
I compiled gas 1.36 with the coff patches, and it run almost fine. Gcc 1.37.1
simply didn't compile anything in the right way: I guessed that the trouble
lay in the way gcc was making every function frame/call... after a week or so
I gave up :-(...
A few days ago I ftped gcc 1.38, and started again. Incredibly, I was able
to reach the stage1. Immediatly I tried to compile the simple program (an
"Hello world" with a function call!) that killed the previous version, and it
ran fine. So I started recompiling gcc with itself keeping my breath...
Everything went right, the gen_* progs ran fine... but... whenever the newly
compiled binary started to recompile gnulib2 it got (cpp got) a fatal signal
11... Sigh. I tried almost everything, guessing some value to put in the conf
files (:-( what a bad implementation...), disabling __builtin_alloca (???
desperation!), but nothing! I was flying... and i fell down!
Take note that the cc compiled version runs almost well, without any problem...
Thanks in advance, 
lele.
