I have just installed gcc-2.3.3 on a sparc running 4.1.1.
Everything seems to have gone fine.  
I ran configure --target=sparc-sun-sunos4.1 and the only change I made to
the Makefile was to change "prefix" to the directory where I wanted the 
installation to go.
I then built the compiler and made the 2 stages and then ran make compare
which went fine.
I then installed the compiler driver, libobjc.a and ran 
install-fixincludes.

What I am wondering about is why it has only changed a few include files?
I realise that this is done to make it compatible with ANSI C, but it is not
fully compatible is it? The gcc we have created doesn't seem to be a COMPLETE
ANSI C system.
As a trivial example RAND_MAX isn't defined in stdlib.h.

So my question is how do I get a complete gcc system with ALL the include files
and libraries, or have I missed something in the installation.


Thanks in advance,

Ross
