Yes, their contents differs; in my case, binutils/include seem to have more files, so I'm afraid my build attempt will break (in a few hours when reaching the point)... Which include / intl / libiberty I should use, from gcc or bintuils? Isn't there some documentation anywhere? Is my assumption, that a "combined build" is most easy, a wrong one and should I try a non-combined build? Are there some docs about? For the documentation, especially extraction of bintuils, would it be a good idea to submit a bug report about the too brief installation instructions? > It only works reliably when working with the development > sources. But there is a way to build a recent released gcc toolchain, isn't there? Sorry for my silly questions, but I tried to follow avaialable documentation and information from the web... Anyone is building gcc-4.6.0, why am I unable, what do I wrong... oki, Steffen
