Dear Sir:
My build of GCC 8.3.0 fails on certain Cray systems having an older
"/usr/include/sys/sdt.h" file. The error messages are:
In file included from

I found a web page dealing with this problem:
http://www.memoryhole.net/kyle/2013/04/building_gcc_48_on_rhel58.html
Maybe one solution is to modify a line in the file
gcc-8.3.0/libstdc++-v3/config.h.in
to edit the lines 436-7
/* Define to 1 if you have a suitable <sys/sdt.h> header file */
#undef HAVE_SYS_SDT_H
and comment line 437
/*#undef HAVE_SYS_SDT_H*/
Is there a better solution than changing the GCC 8.3.0 tar file?
Thank you.
