Date: 8 Aug 1993 23:46:54 GMT Organization: MercWorks, Denver Lines: 24 Message-ID: <24439e$scv@constellation.ecn.uoknor.edu> Reply-To: ngorelic@speclab.cr.usgs.gov NNTP-Posting-Host: essex.ecn.uoknor.edu Summary: Problems with gcc-2.4.5, 386BSD and i486 chip X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.1 PL6] Originator: news@essex.ecn.uoknor.edu I am trying to compile gcc-2.4.5 on my i486 running BSD386 with all patches through patchkit-0.2.3. Everything compiles fine, up until the first time the make tries to use the new ./xgcc executable. The first file it tries to compile is enquire.c: in function fprop: line #2328: floating overflow needless to say it doesn't continue from there. Anyone know why this happens, or better yet, how to get around it? When I did this exact same thing on my 386, with the same software configuration, it worked fine. So its probably something hardware specific, like the 486 chip?
