gcc-4.3.0 on sparc-solaris

[Thomas Maier-Komor]

Hi,

somehow gcc-4.3.0 fails to build on sparc-solaris. gcc-4.[012].x and
gcc-3.4.x worked without problems, but this looks somehow weird,
especially as I am unable to find anything in the config.log that shows
what goes wrong.

I did the following:

$ ../gcc-4.3.0/configure --prefix=/opt/local --without-gnu-as
--without-gnu-ld --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as
--with-mpfr=/opt/csw --with-gmp=/opt/csw --enable-languages=c,c++
CC=/usr/sfw/bin/gcc CFLAGS=-O2 CXX=/usr/sfw/bin/gcc CXXFLAGS=-O2

it doesn't matter if 'env CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash' is prefixed to
'./configure bla bla' or not. Passing AR=/usr/ccs/bin/as and friends
doesn't help anything, too.

Any ideas, what might be wrong?

Check out this bug report:

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35577

Specifically, find the right config.log (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/
show_bug.cgi?id=35577#c2)

Then verify it's not finding libmpfr.so.1 because a host-type
directory is being interpolated.

Then fix by adding the mpfr lib dir to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
