GCC 2.3.3 and i386 BSD 4.4
#799

We have been trying to compile GCC 2.3.3 on one of our 386bsd machines
and it is failing in enquire.c.

from the make...

[ 6 ]make LANGUAGES=c enquire
./xgcc -B./  -DIN_GCC   -g     -DNO_MEM -DNO_STDDEF -DNO_LONG_DOUBLE_IO -O0
-I.  -c ./enquire.c
./enquire.c: In function `fprop':
./enquire.c:2307: floating constant out of range
*** Error code 1

Stop.


So, trying a different tack, we tried compiling it with the cc on bsd
4.4 (which is really gcc-1.39).  This time, enquire compiles, but
fails when trying to create float.h, printing the message "*** Program
got loss-of-precision trap!".

Any thoughts on this?


Thanks,

Colin
