I got around it by making stage1 and using stage1 to make everything the next time around (enquire.c is a fp diagnosis utility that is not needed very much, and you can use an old one to get by until you get the first working pass of GCC 2.4.x up). Once you have a working 2.4.x GCC, you should be able to compile enquire.c with it. DCN --- David C. Niemi (GTE Government Systems): David.Niemi@oasis.gtegsc.com
