Hi guys,

I've been trying to get GCC 2.2.2 to compile on an
IRIS 4D/320 running Irix 4.0.5.  It would seem that the
gcc binary (from any stage) calls 'cat' under some unknown
conditions and errors out.  Funny part is:  'cat' does not appear
anywhere within the binary in question.

Here's a segment of the output I get from make:

------------------------------------------------------
	cc -Wf,-XNg1500 -Olimit 3000 -cckr -O1    -g   -o collect2 collect2.o version.o obstack.o ` case "cc -Wf,-XNg1500 -Olimit 3000 -cckr -O1" in "cc -Wf,-XNg1500 -Olimit 3000 -cckr -O1") echo alloca.o ;; esac `  -lmld -lmalloc
	rm -f ld
	ln collect2 ld
	./gcc -dumpspecs > specs
	echo "__foo () {}" > dummy.c

	if [ -f libgcc2.ready ] ; then \

	fi

Any ideas?

Thanks.
