Hi there !

I'm trying to install GCC 2.3.2 on a Sparc 2 running Solaris 2.0.
I have the Cygnus port of GCC 2.0.2 (taken from the Prime Time
Freeware CD, Vol 1, No 2b, July 92) up and running on the system,
but without the GNU assembler.
Compiling GCC 2.3.2 stops at the file term.c where the Solaris Assembler
(the one in /usr/ccs/bin/as) finds several
  'expressions involving an external symbol'
which it can't compute. I haven't tried porting GAS yet, fearing it could
encounter the same error. Now I'm asking the net, what is the right approach
to get GCC 2.3.2 running on Solaris 2.0 ??

Thanks for any help

Klaus

I had the same problem on Solaris 2.1. Inspecting the generated assembly
file I concluded that the error the assembler complained about
was in the .stab[sn] entries, the debugging information.
(I didn't take time to see whether this was cygnus-2.0.2's fault
or a bug in /usr/ccs/bin/as)

I proceeded to build gcc 2.3.2 with cygnus-2.0.2 by compiling
without -g. (I.e., make CFLAGS= or CFLAGS=-O)

The build completed without any further problems.
