   I have the current verion of Gcc (2.4.5) and am unable to compile it
   on a Bull DPX/2 (no real surprise!) even though it has the correct
   configuration settings.

Let me know how you try to build the distribution and then I will be able
to help you build whatever release of gcc.

   Has any one succeeded in porting GCC to a Bull DPX/2 ?

Me and many others.

   I am told that version 2.2 was working ? Does anyone know where I can obtain
   one ?

Sure and all the new ones.

   I'm also told that Bull in France have people who port Gnu code but they
   never let their customers have access to their discoveries. Sounds a bit
   IBMish to me.

I am although I have a US email address, and all the changes we make on GNU
codes (gcc, gdb, emacs,...) are merged in the standards distributions. Also,
some new changes on gcc will be available whenever gcc-2.5 will be available.
But, if you want to try our current changes under development, we always
let our customers have access to our discoveries.

I hope this adds clarifications to your problems.

Fred.
