I thought `make bootstrap' did `make LANGUAGES=c' to build the stage 1 compiler, and then `make LANGUAGES="c c++ fortran pascal ..."' for stage 2. Or isn't this what you mean? Is there some unfortunate dependency between the C and Pascal compilers at each particular stage?
As far as you Makefile problems go, what are they? I've got a fair amount of experience with them, so I'll have a look if you like.

This is a few seconds to early: The announcement for gpc-19990118 will follow soon ... ;-)
The stage 1 compiler built correctly, but when the 'final' compiler was compiling I got this... [...] configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C

[...] Any ideas?
Yes: Do `make LANGUAGES=c' first, and then `make LANGUAGES=pascal'.
If someone out there is a Makefile wizart, he/she is invited to help us to resolve a circular dependency and some other drawbacks in GPC's Makefiles.
