At first glance it looks like options.h wasn't generated correctly - you'll find this in the gcc subdirectory of your build path - but I wouldn't know why. On the off-chance you haven't seen it there are some target-specific instructions here: > > http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html > > especially you should be using /bin/ksh instead of the default shell. > > I'll kick off a build from the tarball on a system here and see what happens but our sparc machine isn't very fast. The build from the svn archive seems to go okay with /bin/ksh as the login shell and without the GNU utilities in /opt/sfw/bin, with the exception of GNU make and flex. Although, even with /usr/bin/arch returning, "sun4u," it's necessary to build gmp and mpfr as a sparc-sun-solaris2.8 build, due to bootstrapping from a 32-bit libgcc. Simply setting CONFIG_SHELL to ksh did not work, though what seemed to be the problem in writing options.h, might not be related to the shell. Thanks! -- Ctalk Home Page: http://www.ctalklang.org/
