I would like to build gcc for CSU at a different site, where I have
a LOT more disk space. Both machines are decstations running Ultrix-4.x,
although one is Ultrix-4.3 and one is Ultrix-4.2.

Is it possible to build the compiler and just install the binaries?

It seems like stage1 spends a lot of time fixing up the local include
files. Is it possible to skip this stage?

How does it work when you buy a CD-rom with gcc already compiled?


On the topic of perl (in the same vein):

I tried to build perl off-site for use at CSU, but 'make -n install'
blew up, complaining about all sorts of files that it couldn't find,
and they were all absolute paths referring to files at the site
where it was built, but I was hoping to un-tar the built directory
and install it at CSU, where those paths make no sense. Can anyone
help me with this, either?
