- I'm trying to make a decision as to whether to use gcc instead of
- Sun's ANSI C for which they are stupidly trying to charge universities
- per-machine license fees.
-
- If I can't successfully build an "ALL gcc" (including shared libraries) X11,
- then I have to give up and pay Sun.
-
- I installed the patches in gcc-2.3.2/README.X11. After changing "syslimits.h"
- to "sys/limits.h" in limits.h, everything compiles, but NO executables build:
-
- gcc -fpcc-struct-return -o xeyes xeyes.o Eyes.o transform.o -O2 -L../.././lib/Xmu -lXmu -L../.././lib/Xt -L../.././extensions/lib -L../.././lib/X -L../.././lib/Xt -lXt -L../.././extensions/lib -lXext -L../.././extensions/lib -lXext -L../.././lib/X -lX11 -L/usr/local/X11R5/lib -lm
- collect: /usr/bin/ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]
-
- A segmentation fault is a little difficult to diagnose. The time I'm
- spending getting things to work which should work out of the box but
- don't is begining to cost more than just forking out the money for
- commercial versions.
-
- Is it time to give up yet?
-
- Can't freeware do a little better than this?
-
- I am using SunOS 4.1.1.

- Please copy followups (if any) to my email address.
