Hi, Jeff Law.
In my environment, neither egcs-1.1.2 nor gcc-2.95.2 can be compiled successfully . There are some errors in the code, for example:
decl.c: In function 'start_struct':
decl.c:4448:1: error: argument 'code' doesn't match prototype
start_struct (code, name)
^
In file included from decl.c:187:0:
ch-tree.h:736:13: error: prototype declaration
extern tree start_struct PROTO((enum tree_code, tree));
^
Can you teach me how to resolve this problem? The blow is my environment information：
[test@ubuntu:gcc-2.95.2]$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 4.4.0-78-generic #99~14.04.2-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 27 18:51:25 UTC 2017 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
[test@ubuntu:gcc-2.95.2]$ gcc -v
gcc version 4.8.4 (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.3)
