SUMMARY: Building gcc 4.1.1

[Bugs <bb1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry about being late on this summary. I was on vacation
the last 2 weeks sitting in my boat on trinity lake.

I received help from these kind folk, but before trying
their solutions, I removed the alphaev68-dec-osf5.1b/libjava
directory,
../configure --enable-shared --enable-libgcj --enable-threads=posix 
make bootstrap
make install...

and it works just fine. I tested it by compiling packages that
require gcc such as gnutar 1-13, and a few others.

My original post is below.

Thanks again for your help.

	You should force "configure" to use ksh:

	- sh:

	$ LS=ls
	$ FOO=$($LS)
	syntax error: `FOO=$' unexpected

	- ksh:

	~/ LS=ls
	~/ FOO=$($LS)
	~/ echo $FOO
	[...ls output...]


	otherwise, edit that shell script and replace $() syntax with ``
	syntax.

Do you actually want the java compiler?  I've had trouble with that on Tru64
before.  If you don't want the java compiler, just tell the build system not
to build it, and you should be OK.  I can't remember exactly which options
you need to make it do this, but the documentation that comes with the
source code in the doc/ subdirectory will tell you.

The #error statement seems to indicate a missing type or typedef of
the required size.

eg something like (basic_functions.h around line 150)

# if	!defined(HAS_UINT32_T)
# error Need type which holds 32 bits
# endif

My guess is if you backtrack from this and define the missing #define in
config.h and supply the required typedef you may be able to it all
to compile.
But check the latest patches for the package as these things are often
fixed quite quickly.

I don't know what you try to achieve here: --disable-libjava doesn't exist,
and would be just the opposite of --enable-libgcj.  If you want to disable
building libjava, you should just use --disable-libgcj (which makes sense
since all libjava execution tests time out at the moment).

Besides, --enable-threads=posix is superfluous since it's the default.

Again, a non-portable construct has crept into the classpath configure
script.  Replacing $(...) by `...` should work.  Please file a bug at

	http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/

for this issue.  As a workaround, you can configure and build with
CONFIG_SHELL set to either /bin/ksh (which might have some problems
nonetheless), or some copy of bash.
