Hi,

I got it, I think.

I re-installed all the steps and gcc and pgcc work now.  The only difference
that I can recall is that the broken installs I'd started as me, instead of
root.

I'm wondering if some things did get installed before I installed as root,
that screwed up the install as root.  Or maybe that has nothing to do with
it.  Anyway, by re-installing the original versions and then running 'make
install' as root (installing into /usr), it works.

And, I found the gcc mailing list.

Thanks.

Hi,

I'm not on the pgcc mailing list.  Please send responses directly to me.

Q1: Is there a gcc/egcs mailing list that I can send questions to?  I think
I'm having gcc trouble, rather than pgcc trouble.

Q2: If you want to take a stab at the real question, it is: gcc/pgcc is
getting stuck trying to compile "hello.c".

I'm installing pgcc into /usr to overwrite the gcc version egcs 2.91.66 on
Linux RedHat 6.2.

After running 'make install', I'm using the command

gcc hello.c

(eventually I press ^c to kill it).

The hello.c file is just including stdio.h and printf'ing "hello\n".  The
above works with the gcc that came with RedHat.  I can re-install the egcs
.rpm for RedHat 6.2 to get gcc working again.

The reason I think this is a gcc and not a pgcc problem is that I have the
trouble even if I don't patch the gcc 2.95.2 source.  The "vanilla" gcc
doesn't work for me either.

So, if you know of another list I should ask this on, or other helpful
advice for gcc, please let me know.
