I'm not sure if I should be asking here, or in one of the newsgroups, but
I'm stuck. I'm trying to build a cross compiler, using a host of
sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3, and a target of i486-go32. I have seen messages
about applying patches, and then doing a normal configure with the
above host/targets. The GCC I'm using is directly off the FSF GNU
Source Code CD, May 94 edition (GCC 2.5.8). The configure program
as shipped doesn't know about go32 as a target. There is a file
"configure.bat", which appears to be a ms-dos batch file designed
to create "Makefile" from "Makefile.in". However, I can't get it
to work on my system. The "update"s run okay, but either something
goes wrong with the echos, or with the sed. The sed I have is from
the djgpp distribution (1.11 maint1). I'm not sure if this is
supposed to be a regular DOS batch file, or what. The name is too
long for DOS (9+3), and is in unix format. After renaming and
"unix2dos"ing, I still run into problems. The problems are always
around running sed. I get various errors, including "Batch file missing".
I almost appears as if the sed.exe is trashing something in memory.
Even if I get this working, I'm still somewhat confused. I would
expect that somewhere I would need to do a "configure ..." with the
host and target as I mentioned above. However, this batch file creates
a "Makefile" from "Makefile.in", but nowhere along the way am I
specifying a host or target.
I've tried to read docs, but am still missing something. Can anybody
set me straight?
Thanks,
