I also tried it on hp710/hpux8.07 and succeded in building gcc only
not c++. The configure file needs to be expanded to include a case for
i386-ibm-go32 , and also the binutils are set up for aout system not
coff so I worked with go32 1.09, and libs and built 2.5.8. Here is the
diff for configure :
538,543d537
<       i[34]86-ibm-go32)               # Intel 80386's running GO32/djgpp
<               cpu_type=i386
<               xm_file=i386/xm-dos.h
<               xmake_file=i386/x-sysv3
<               tm_file=i386/go32.h
<               ;;

I dont know how hard it is to build it for 1.11 since it uses coff format.
