--- Comment #8 from Michael Felt <aixtools at gmail dot com> --- This ran MUCH better - thanks, but curious about what to do with following messages (there where more than I could reverse scroll). I forgot where I read about some systems having .o files that are always different, maybe I need to verify a tool. Next suggestion is welcome. powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs/compatibility-list.o differs powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs/compatibility-parallel_list-2.o differs powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs/compatibility-parallel_list.o differs powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs/compatibility-debug_list.o differs powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs/compatibility-list-2.o differs powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs/compatibility-thread-c++0x.o differs powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs/compatibility.o differs powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs/compatibility-debug_list-2.o differs powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs/compatibility-atomic-c++0x.o differs zlib/libz_a-compress.o differs zlib/libz_a-inftrees.o differs zlib/libz_a-deflate.o differs zlib/libz_a-gzio.o differs zlib/libz_a-inffast.o differs zlib/libz_a-zutil.o differs zlib/libz_a-uncompr.o differs zlib/libz_a-inflate.o differs zlib/libz_a-crc32.o differs zlib/libz_a-trees.o differs zlib/libz_a-adler32.o differs zlib/libz_a-infback.o differs make[2]: *** [compare] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/data/prj/gnu/gcc/objdir/gcc-4.7.4' make[1]: *** [stage3-bubble] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/data/prj/gnu/gcc/objdir/gcc-4.7.4' make: *** [all] Error 2 On Tue, Nov 4, 2014 at 10:09 AM, aixtools at gmail dot com <gcc-bugzi...@gcc.gnu.org> wrote: > https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63714 > > --- Comment #7 from Michael Felt <aixtools at gmail dot com> --- > update: > CONFIG_SHELL=/usr/bin/ksh still fails at the start > CONFIG_SHELL=/opt/bin/bash (v4-30) complains, but moves on. > [ -f stage_final ] || echo stage3 > stage_final > /opt/bin/bash: command substitution: line 2: syntax error near unexpected > token `-qlanglvl=extc89' > /opt/bin/bash: command substitution: line 2: `case cc -qlanglvl=extc89 in > *gcc*) echo -Wl,-bbigtoc ;; esac;' > ... > What needs correcting so that a switch/case statement (I presume) is > constructed correctly? > > On Mon, Nov 3, 2014 at 10:46 PM, aixtools at gmail dot com < > gcc-bugzi...@gcc.gnu.org> wrote: > >> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63714 >> >> --- Comment #6 from Michael Felt <aixtools at gmail dot com> --- >> thanks. it is night. shall look at this again tomorrow. >> had not spotted CONFIG_SHELL among the how to build ada text.
