Subject: problem compiling GCC

Hi, I sent in a bug report for GCC and recieved back a patch to the sources.
I'm trying to apply the patch so I can test if it fixes the bug, but I'm
having no end of troubles trying to get gcc compiled.

I did the following:
  - unzipped the sources gcc257s*.zip
  - unzipped the maints (1-5) just to be sure
  - installed a version of sed
  - reinstalled command.com (4dos was causing problems)
  - ran the configur.bat
  - removed "-g" from CFLAGS in the makefile (I'm low on diskspace)
  - did "make" (using make from the mak369bn.zip dist)

after it made the cc1 file, I stopped the make.  When I stripped cc1
it went from 1432122 bytes to 1282048 bytes.  This seems pretty far off
from the cc1.exe in djgpp\bin, and when I try to run it with "go32 cc1 -v"
it just responds "cc1: Invalid option '-v'" and sits reading from the stdin.

I need help.  What did I do wrong?  I haven't applied the patch yet, I was
going to do that after making sure I could compile correctly.
Christopher
