Compiling gcc-2.95.2 for use as m68k cross compiler

[Mark Palmerino <mbp at csr-bos dot com>]

Hi all,

I am taking Kai's gentle suggestions to consider using gcc-2.95.2 as the
base for building a cross-compiler with the target of m68k-coff.  I am in
that process now.

I have run into a problem that I'm hoping someone might suggest a solution
for. Here is the output during the make where it stops. It seems that there
is a "configure error" when checking whether the C compiler works. The funny
thing though is that I think it was working in the make before this point.
Also, if I execute the following from the unix prompt:

/h/crossgcc/build-gcc295/gcc/xgcc -B/h/crossgcc/build-gcc95/gcc/
-B/usr/local/m68k-coff/bin/ -g -O2

I get:

xgcc: No input files

If I add a -v to the above command, I get:

Using builtin specs.
gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)

So it seems to me it is working.

Any ideas of what to do?

Thanks
