Earlier, I asked:
While making libg++ on an Alpha running DU v3.2c, I got the warning:
...
gcc -o gperf new.o options.o iterator.o main.o gen-perf.o key-list.o
list-node.o hash-table.o bool-array.o read-line.o std-err.o version.o
-L./../../ -L./../../../libstdc++ -lg++ -lstdc++ -lm
/bin/ld:
Warning: Linking some objects which contain exception information sections
and some which do not. This may cause fatal runtime exception handling
problems (last obj encountered without exceptions was version.o).
I need to thank the following for their answers:
Olle Eriksson, Kevin Oberman, David Bremner
David Bremmer more or less summed it up in an earlier summary (which my
archive searches didn't find for some reason.)
> Thanks for the usual superhumanly fast response.

Additionally, Kevin Oberman sent me the attached patch. The patch is
intended to work on gcc-2.7.2. Note that the most recient version is
gcc-2.7.2.1.

Hello Hans-Georg,
you may apply a patch to the GNU compiler (gcc-2.7.2). Appended
to this posting is a uuencoded, gnuzip'ped and tar'ed archive,
which contains the necessary stuff to modify the compiler.
You may apply it as follows by the following assumptions:
a) The uunecoded arcchive resides in a file named "xxx.uu"
b) The gcc source directory is "/usr/local/src/GNU/GCC/gcc-2.7.2"
Now do the following ...
decode the archive
$ uudecode < xxx.uu
This produces the file "gcc-2.7.2-decAlpha3.2d.tar.gz" in your
current directory. Copy this file into the >> parent directory <<
of the gcc source directory.
$ cp gcc-2.7.2-decAlpha3.2d.tar.gz /usr/local/src/GNU/GCC
Change into that directory:
$ cd /usr/local/src/GNU/GCC
Unpack the archive:
$ gunzip <gcc-2.7.2-decAlpha3.2d.tar.gz | tar xvf -
This generates two files
1) "gcc-2.7.2/config/alpha/osf32.h"
2) "./gcc-2.7.2-decAlpha3.2d.patch"
Now, apply the patch file:
$ patch <./gcc-2.7.2-decAlpha3.2d.patch
This patches two files:
2) gcc-2.7.2/ChangeLog
1) gcc-2.7.2/configure
After having done this you can re-build gcc/g++ the usual way ...
$ cd gcc-2.7.2
$ ./configure
$ make bootstrap
After having done you must re-build and install the
library "libg++.a" using the newly made g++.
Here is the uu-stuff:
