Here is their replies.
On 4.0 this should work exactly as described in the INSTALL file. Changing
files etc. is only required on 5.0 and upwards. So:
cd /usr/local/src
tar xzf gcc-2.95.3-src.tar.gz
mkdir obj
cd obj
../gcc-2.95.3/configure
gmake bootstrap
Oh yes, you need GNU make, maybe it won't work by just typing "make". So get
the sources for gnu make, install it, make sure you rename the binary from
"make" to "gmake" or "gnumake" (so as to distinguish it from DEC's own
"make"), and then use that one.
Also make sure that you are really bootstrapping with cc and not with an
older version of gcc. In case you already have an older version of gcc
installed, you should do
CC="cc"
export CC
before running configure.
---------------------------------------------
I never modified anything on my 4.0F systems.
Try in the gcc build directory:
../gcc-2.95.3/configure alpha-dec-osf4 --prefix=/usr/local
make bootstrap
Depending on how fast your system is, this may take a loooong time.
--------------------------------------------
>From memory :
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make bootstrap
make
make install
The only really important thing is the "make bootstrap". Without that,
compilation will fail.
