Hi ! I'm trying to build gcc 4.1.1 (or 2) using windows xp, cygwin build environment. Originally I have found a reference about successful build of gcc - from this http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.1/buildstat.html i686-pc-cygwin Bootstrap (C, C++): 4.1.1 >>> http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2006-09/msg00104.html but that one failed: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-03/msg01197.html Brian Dessent recommended to me to use pthread instead of win32 http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-03/msg01198.html Now I have tried to execute following commands: $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-4.1.1 --program-suffix=-4.1.1 --enable-threads=pthreads --with-cpu=i686 --with-arch=i686 --with-tune=i686 --enable-languages=c,c++ $ make and end up into error: checking if mkdir takes one argument... no Using `../.././gcc/config/i386/i386.c' for machine-specific logic. Using `../.././gcc/config/i386/i386.md' as machine description file.
