actually, I was able to compile gcc7 these past two days.
It is gcc6 that was failing, I did not have gcc7 installed.
I will not "retry" rebuild gcc6... and in case drop it and see if we can
do everything without.
Got it!
so, interesting. I had obsolete gcc6.5 and obsolete libgcc7
I repeatedly tried upgrading this route.
gcc 6.5 would build wrong, stage comparion failure. THis lasted for months!
I attempted differenlty I build gcc7 (actually from your repository, I
don't know if it matters). This gave me automatically also an up-to-date
libgcc based on libgcc7. It Built at the first attempt
Then I tried (after a clean) rebuilding gcc 6.5 and it landed too!
This took several days.. on a 2x 1GHz G4 ! wow
And now, I am upgrading the rest and it is churing one package after the
other, let's see where it goes undisturbed!
