Hi, I try to build egcs on the Hurd currently. Your rules files are very nice, and required only very little changes (I'll send you a patch when I'm finished).
However, I had two problems: * I deactivated gpc, is this okay? I saw that the Alpha port does it, too. The reason was compiler errors about "no + or - following compiler directives" in pascal source files. Very weired error indeed. Maybe I should try again after having installed egcs packages... * The configure step does not prepare libio/libstd++/libg++ for building. In fact, they are not build. After the "make bootstrap" completed, the build stops because there is no $(LIBBUILDDIR)/i386-gnu/libio directory. Seems to be a problem with the subpackages. Do you have a hint where to search for the cause? Is this an architecture problem (that is, some "case" needs to be done for "*-gnu" architectures?)? How is this sub packages part supposed to work? Btw, we will use egcs for gcc and g++. Thanks for your fine work, Marcus -- "Rhubarb is no Egyptian god."
