I was patching along the patch and hadn't tried it out myself. When I did so tonight in the 'reconfigure' branch, I did not get good results:
CC="/usr/bin/gcc-3.3" CX="/usr/bin/g++-3.3" /usr/local/bin/perl Configure.pl --cc="$CC" --cxx="$CX" --link="$CX" \ --ld="$CX" --without-icu --without-gmp \ $@ Parrot Version 0.4.12 Configure 2.0 Copyright (C) 2001-2007, The Perl Foundation. Hello, I'm Configure. My job is to poke and prod your system to figure out how to build Parrot. The process is completely automated, unless you passed in the `--ask' flag on the command line, in which case it'll prompt you for a few pieces of info. Since you're running this program, you obviously have Perl 5--I'll be pulling some defaults from its configuration. Checking MANIFEST.....................................................done. Setting up Configure's default values.................................done. Setting up installation paths.........................................done. Tweaking settings for miniparrot...................................skipped. Loading platform and local hints files................................done. Determining nongenerated header files.................................done. Determining what C compiler and linker to use...minimal.c:2: error: parse error before '<' token No compiler found (tried '/usr/bin/gcc-3.3') Was I doing something wrong? kid51
