Oh dear, I think I have been rather silly.. I recently posted a message to this news group concenring my inability to produce a sun4-sun3 cross compiler from gcc2.1. Like others, I had built the initial compiler and then failed when attempting to build the new compiler in the stage1 directory.... And so it should fail. At this point one has a compiler that runs on a Sun4 and compiles to Sun3 (Well, it will do once I have sorted out a library..). Trying to recompile gcc with this stage1 compiler is bound to fail. why? Because it will try and produce a sun3-sun3 compiler. (That's correct isn't it?) So, I believe that the documentation on building gcc ought to be a little more helpful in directing one on how to build a cross compiler. I have got my thinking straight haven't I? I still need to understand how to make the gcc-cross use the gas-sun3 and libraries; any pointers? A humble hacker, Neil (D).
