Re: [XFree86] where is /usr/bin/cc being set?

For platforms where a suitable cpp can reasonably be exptected to be available in $PATH, the full path doesn't have to be specified there. A lot of platforms use 'cc -E'. Usually cpp doesn't know about the system specific defines. It is used when just a preprocessor is needed. Any version of cpp will do (as long as it's not broken). cc -E knows about system specific defines which may differ between compier versions. Howver cc should be in the path.

Note I know I could just make a symbolic link to get rid of the error, but that's not my question. The top level Makefile refers to $(CC), and I guess your version of make defines it to /usr/bin/cc. An alternative to creating the symlink is to run 'make CC=your-cc-command World', or find out how to change make's default (if possible).

I tried setting CC and BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS and neither gets rid of the problem completely. I also have a problem with /usr/bin/cpp being hard coded in various places. I complain about this because I often use different compiler versions. I would rather just set the PATH to point to the directiry of the compiler in use for cpp, gcc, etc. I see in the imake.c and imakemdep.h that /usr/bin/cpp is being hard-coded into the executables.

Have you been able to isolate where the references to /usr/bin/cc are coming from then if it isn't from $(CC)? I complain about this because I often use different compiler versions. I would rather just set the PATH to point to the directiry of the compiler in use for cpp, gcc, etc. Traditionally cpp hasn't alwasy been in $PATH (e.g., /lib/cpp). I ran into a problem with a RH 5.2 test build where /lib/cpp exists, but not /usr/bin/cpp (and linux.cf now refers to the latter). I see in the imake.c and imakemdep.h that /usr/bin/cpp is being hard-coded into the executables.
