How does one configure gcc 2.3.3 for installation under Dynix 3.2?  Attempting
to build the stage 2 compiler (after configuring with
--target=i386-sequent-dynix) produces:

.

.
        stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/ -c  -DIN_GCC   -g -O     -I. -I. -I./config ./gena
ttrtab.c                                                                        
In file included from /usr/include/sys/time.h:24, from ./genattrtab.c:105:      
/usr/include/machine/machtypes.h:57: warning: `_VA_LIST_' redefined             
./gvarargs.h:140: warning: this is the location of the previous definition      
In file included from ./genattrtab.c:112:                                       
./obstack.h:158: parse error before `ptrdiff_t'

etc.

The source of this and other problems seems to be that the Dynix 3.2
/usr/include/machine/machtypes.h defines things like _VA_LIST_ and _PTRDIFF_T_
without checking for previous definitions, which occur mainly in gvarargs.h and
gstddef.h.

I found no special instructions in the gcc 2.3.3 documentation for Dynix 3.2; I
just followed the procedure that had worked under 3.0.12, albeit using GNU ld
instead of /bin/ld, since the older version of /bin/ld didn't understand the -L
flag. 

Thanks,
