   Hi,

   I am attempting to set up X11R5 on my workstation.  It failed
   when using /bin/cc and the answer given me from the net was the
   /bin/cc on 386i was broken enough to compile the R5 server wrong.
   I hadn't had much problem with it before, but then I don't do
   development on it frequently anyway.

   So .. set up gcc following the instructions as best as I could.
   (They're not the terribly clear..)  It compiles all the way
   through stage2 without problem, but the compare step doesn't
   work.  I also did the COFF version of the compare step and
   that didn't work either.  Also, if I go ahead and use the gcc
   anyway, the X11R5 which results doesn't work.  It runs, but exits
   complaining about a font.  Also compiling some small programs
   results in a message from ld claiming that /lib/crt0.o wasn't
   the right sort of file.  The GNU ld is in /usr/local/bin and
   my PATH has /usr/local/bin before /usr/bin.

   Where can I get gcc & etc binaries for this system?

This has come up before.  The gcc-1.40 binaries and the X11R4 sun386i 
binaries are ftp-able.  The following info showed up in comp.windows.x 
and was reposted in comp.archives a while back.  It has also shown up 
on the sun386i mailing list.

   I have seen a few requests for this, so I decided to post
   a note.
   
   Executables and libraries of the X11R4 distribution are
   available via anonymous ftp to tuewsl.win.tue.nl, in the
   directory pub/X11_386i.
   
   We have used them for some months on our 386i/250's without
   problems. Note that the files (.tar.Z format) only contain
   the binaries of X-Windows. On request, I can make the
   XView / olwm binaries available too.
   
   Please inform me of any trouble getting the files.

As for the sun386i X11R5 binaries, I have some good news about that too.  
The following post showed up on alt.sys.sun and comp.archives, as well as 
the sun386i mialing list, recently.

   Rich Kaul of Ohio State, <kaul@ee.eng.ohio-state.edu>,
   has provided me with the binaries of X11R5 for the Sun 386i running
   SunOS 4.0.2.  I have placed them on dsinc.dsi.com for anon ftp.
   
   Rich comments:
   The file is R5.386i.tar.Z and is 11407885 bytes.  Uncompressed, this
   goes to ~24Mbytes.  You don't need to use that much space, since you can
   delete a lot of the fonts and the binaries aren't stripped.  For
   instance, my 386i's don't need the 100dpi fonts...
   
   This distribution is X11R5 + 3 fixes.  It's compiled for SunOS 4.0.2
   with the GNU C 1.40 compiler.  It's designed to be unpacked in
   /usr/cluster and will give you a directory structure like
   /usr/cluster/X11R5/{bin,include,lib}. Putting it elsewhere may require
   some additional tweaking for the dynamic libraries.
   
   My comments:
   I unpacked them on my Sun, and they work.  I was even able to
   run the OLWM/Xview 2.0 binaries that were released last month with it.
   
   Note: It does not include any OLWM/Xview stuff in Rich's release.
   
   Of course, if anyone has OLWM/Xview 3.0 binaries, I still have some room
   left on the archive machine.
   
   Please be kind to dsinc.dsi.com and do your transfers off hours, its only
   a poor 16MHz 386PC on a 56kb link.
